on MAUI

I am so thankful to God she is a tropical storm, you have no idea...

She is traveling between Hawaii and Maui that has not happened in decades. Our part of the Island is in the zone so wind and rain will be on the agenda in about 8-10 hours and will last for at least 24-36 hours.

Our building is almost secure our personal cars are topped off and the big generator is hopping for action. The little one is ready too. I have gone over my list 3 times and still feel there is something missing.

I am in a wee bit of trouble however you see I got into Mrs. Mango’s personal hurricane stash of survival food. Now I have to go and get her more Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes… She was not happy, as the milk was hanging off my chin I said sorry. The sorry did not seem to help matters; eating her KFG is a pretty serious violation of survival rules.

Thanks for the prayers anyone have a spare broom and dust pan.

Hey, Mango, you take care, now, you hear?????

Make sure you get a double box of those KFF's for Mrs. Mango. We don't need a personal "her-i-cane" starting to tear you apart :D :D

Keep in touch when you can. Oh, and I'll be there to help clean up.....as soon as my ship comes in :wink:

Hey Mango,

Hang in there man, and let us know how you're doing when it blows over, otherwise we'll all be worrying about you.
:wink:

Looks like now that she will hit as a "tropical depression" ??

Winds under 40?--sure hope so, just the rain alone will be bad enough, don't need any high winds.

Stay safe

Vicki

It is still quiet on our side of the Island, She has slowed down so it looks like another 8-10 hours before the full TD hits us.

We have had some of the outer band come by for a visit and make pretty rainbows for us

"Felicia in the sky with rainbows" now that's funny Mango, have you been eating too many frosted flakes? Or umbrella drinks? :D

Hope all you get is a LITTLE rain!!
