Well, as the first of TWO hurricanes (Iselle, followed by Julio) is blowing on shore now, I am off to the homestead to batten down the hatches and play Carcassonne and drink… see you all after it blows over. Sergeant Paper in Honolulu |

Echoing "stay safe."
Post here when they've passed, so we know you made it through okay. |

What are two Hurricanes without any Messerschmidts, Dorniers, or Heinkels? |

Batten down and ride it out… And TWO big blows?? That's more than anyone should get smacked with… Stay safe and sound! |

Stay high, stay dry, stay safe! |

Stay safe, and dry (if you can). Let us know when you climb out of your foxhole. |

My wife said, "That is SO wrong."
My glass of brandy said, "I LIKE it!" Still waiting for it to hit Oahu some time early morning… |

Thanks for the support! Wow, that was like going to a UH sporting event… a lot of buildup, then the visitor just blew through anticlimactically, and left us with some cleanup. I do appreciate the day off from work, and I got to test all my emergency lanterns and stove, so its good prep for an actual emergency. :) I hope Bob from Maui did okay, they had some big blow-downs over there. |

I had the good fortune to live on Oahu during the visit by Hurricane Iniki in 1992. Thankfully it too passed by without extensive destruction. A little tougher on the folks on Kauai, but it also could have been much worse. Glad to hear you weathered the storm without mishap. |
