Oops, Terry. I said "Panhandle" but I meant "Peninsula." I know approximately where you are, explaining my concern for you and Vee. I know a cozy little place near Hillsborough Bay...

We are far enough inland that winds in Jackson county are projected to be eighty-six mph. We have taken one hundred mph before, so if this thing does not spawn tornados, we will be fine. If the course does not change, it will simply mean tying up loose stuff and protecting the rabbits. Right now, they are under canvas carports, which can't take much more than thirty mph, so I will have to take the canvas off the four carports or lose them. The cages are fixed to a framework that is set into the ground, so I can just let the wind blow through them, but I have to protect my bunnies. I plan to spred a couple of the canvases on the floor,in the shop. Then I will put the rabbits in cages I have for transporting them to market, and put them in the shop until it blows over. I can't leave because the rabbits and the dog will need food and water. If I go away, they may not let me come back in time to take care of the animals, and If I go to a local shelter, I can't take the dog. As we did last time, we will fill some pots with water to drink, and put a couple of plastic barrels in the pickup bed and fill them so we have something to flush the toilet with if necessary. We have a generator, so we will be able to keep the freezers and refrigerator operating if need be. The phones will probably go out, so I may not be able to offer inspiration or absolute truth to the group, but hard as it may be, I suspect y'all will struggle along somehow without me. If this happens, we will probably just kick back and watch TV by candle light. (Yeah, I know, old joke ).
