Another hurricane, IKE

[Marilyn]

Right now the hurricane's 5 day forecast is headed straight for us. When hubby gets home from the hospital, the will not be able to lift more then 5 lbs for a while. We're trying to figure out what we will do if it comes here. We would have to somehow board the house up. We have the plywood cut and numbered & stored for the windows, but we're in a two story, and I can't do it by myself. Also would have to move all the outside stuff inside, and hook onto our 5th wheel and head inland.

We're just praying it goes farther south and hits the King Ranch area of the coast. There is very little there to be affected by a storm, mostly scrub and fences. A big one hit there a few years ago and did very little damage. The resulting flooding in it's path was pretty bad though as to moved inland. Keep your fingers crossed it misses populated areas.
