Glad to see you were able to keep your powder dry Dan. I know what you were feelin'.

Back in '85 I had to evacuate ahead of "Gloria" at the Jersey shore. Disconcerting to say the least.

Good Pics, Dan. I hope I don't have to go through this crap with Hannah.
One good thing, I'm eight miles from the ocean front, but my corner has been
known to flood. I've had water 3/4 the way up my drive-way. Guess we
wait and watch. You know... like the Navy.... hurry up and wait.

Geez Les that was close. I noticed that you don't have gutters on your house. Most houses down there not have em? Sure would help to keep water out of your crawlspace.

Nice pics Les, but most importantly you and all your family and property is safe.

It just goes to show you that you never know what is lerking in the depths of the ocean and will get washed up on the beach. What the hell is that big thing in the middle of the last pic on #7?

Well, Wayne..its a thought. I have a few siblings that live down your way, in NZ. OR is that a reason NOT to? Hmm...

I'm not sure anyplace is ready for "The Dan" he is an intresting force.
