The wrath of Fay

I spent the whole day inside the house watching TV and monitoring the news since 3.30am this morning. Greg has to fly to San Francisco early this morning for a very important meeting he can not afford to miss, but Tropical storm Fay was pounding the whole State of Florida from east to west, north to south and actually praying the flights were cancelled so Greg will stay at home. Classes and work was suspended but the plane took off on time. Greg is now in San Francisco having dinner at a restaurant called "the girl and the fig" (hmmmm!) missing the lashes Mother Nature had just unleashed to the Floridians. Fortunately, it did not develop into a hurricane as forecasted earlier or it would have brought more damage than it already delivered. Right now, were experiencing some flooding in many areas, reports of tornadoes in Wellington, Ft Pierce, Port St. Lucie and Stuart. Whew, those are close. But I'm ok, there are no damage to our building. I actually went out to Carlin Park and found surfers chasing the furious surf on shore. Some people just know how to have fun even amidst the wrath of Fay.
