Battening down the hatches for the coming week.

And luckily, not because of Sandy. I wish everyone facing the wrath of the storm only the best, and after spending spent a rough week earlier this year without power, lights, or basic sanitation while temperatures soared into the triple digits, a very speedy restoration of services. Remember, when they suggest you to evacuate - please do it, and please, please, take the family pets with you.

Came across a few tidbits of stormy interest, including the rescue of 14 from the HMS Bounty (they are still searching for some of the crew), and the possiblity of Lake Michigan wave heights of 18 to 25 feet. The guys at the local surf club are a little too excited.

Everyone stay safe!
