Growing up, I've lived in mobile homes which meant you kept a watch on the weather. Living in Florida, hurricanes are a given, I've even enjoyed many a hurricane party in my twenties.
Now that I'm living in the Airstream, I try to keep a closer watch on the weather - with the awning out terms like "wind speed" and "gusts" take on a whole new meaning. Because I do not have a vehicle that can move this house on wheels, I have become a watcher of the skies, a listener of weather forecasts, and a constant visitor to the GOES-NOAA website. This allows me time to coordinate with my Dad (keeper of the vehicle big enough to pull my home to safety) a plan for moving the Airstream should a hurricane decide to carve a path towards my current path in life.

The Keys are currently being evacuated due to Fay who is currently a tropical storm but due to hit the warm waters of the Gulf and expected to become a hurricane. Should I need to flee, I will keep you updated.
Goodnight, I will sleep well as the gentle rains lull me to sleep.
