[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by dave9999</i> <br /><br />Everyone, <br />Thanks for your concern. <br /> It looks as if Ivan is going to call on us. Only I won't be home to answer the door. <br />If it continues this way, I'll be leaving town sometime tomorrow afternoon. Planning to <br />take some back roads to avoid the massive traffic jams that we experienced back in <br />'95 when Opal hit. We were stuck in traffic when the storm started inland. I'll never forget <br />the car rocking in the wind. Thought it would flip a couple of times. <br /> <br />I have talked with a few friends and it seems everyone has the same idea about leaving <br />tomorrow. If Nancy wasn't a manager and didn't have to check on her store, we would leave <br />tonight. I anticipate a lot of traffic tomorrow. Maybe things will go smoothly, although I doubt <br />it. <br /> <br />I'll probably head northwest and find a campground away from danger. After Opal, I learned that <br />motel room withen a 300 mile radius is out of the question. <br /> <br />My plan is to grab everything of value that I can pack in my truck, Nancy's car and the camper. I <br />have a bad feeling looting will be a problem in the neighborhood I live in. And we may not be <br />able to return home for a few days. If anyone steals my trains, things could get ugly[B)][8D]. <br /> <br />I hope and pray that this storm makes a fool out of me and I'm going though all this trouble for <br />nothing! Although it's not likely to just go away. <br /> <br />Again thanks for the concern. Dave <br />[/quote] <br /> <br /> <br />Good luck my friend, stay safe.
