    Well, it didn't wobble overnight, the way I'd hoped it would. We are still smack in the middle of the projected path, right where the Milford hurricane hit in '38. This morning, we're going to finish securing the beach house as well as we can, and then skedaddle to a condo about a mile from shore.

    Fasten your seatbelts, folks, it's going to be a bumpy night! ;)

    Thanks,

    Bill

    I woke thinking about all you Easterners, and I hope you ride out the storm without a scratch. Stay safe.

    Be safe, Bill. I know what you're going through. I used to live on the Outer Banks.

    I thought I left hurricanes behind when I left New Orleans. Holding on in Philly. fos.

    I've never experienced anything like it. Looks terrifying. Keep safe, Bill, and anyone else in Irene's path.

    There was a blue plastic kickball on my yard that rolled there from the house across the street. It was next to a light post on the right side of my front yard. During the course of Hurricane Irene night, it rolled approximately 10 feet across my yard and ended up next to a small dogwood.

    Other than that, and the hummingbird that went without food on Saturday, we sustained no damage.

    We were, we are fortunate. Hope everyone else fared as well!

    It was nothing in Boston. Just a few trees down. I was hoping for a better storm. My sister did ok in NC, thankfully.
