Hey, those hurricane shutters will be a wise investment . . .and yes, you need the clear panels!

I hate to say this, but we need rain so badly - I'd like something along the lines of a catergory 1, or a mere tropical storm - to come here!

My best friend and I are supposed to be flying into Jacksonville, FL tomorrow to go to the Florida-Miami game. Just as Hanna is supposed to be hitting the area. Great.

Just checked weather.com again. Showing Hanna as being further out from JAX. Yeah!

The hurricane shutters are great! It's now law in the state of Florida that all new construction homes come with a set-- but we have no clear panels. Luckily hubby's best friend puts up shutters for a living, so we should be able to get some when he gets time-- of course who knows when that will be!

We were saying the same thing about needing rain in May-- but after Fay, I'll never wish a tropical storm on anyone. Nor will I say "oh, it's no big deal just a tropical storm." *LOL*
