first we have an earthquake even if not as bad as on the west coast and now  we are  in for the rains and winds of the hurricane...

Hoping all make it through this week/weekend safely.

Be careful, friends. No precaution is useless if it makes you safer. Those of us along the Gulf Coast send our sympathy and prayers!!

Hoping you're all right Mike..  You too Maureen, Liz, Denise, et al.

I've got a travel decision to make in the next 24  hours.  Do I go home before the storm hits or wait it out until afterward?

Wait it out Nan - you are safer where you are.  Where was that again?

Just be careful everyone, and if they say go, please do it.

Wait it out, Nan... wait it out. Whatever possessions you might save if you're there isn't the risk to YOU.

The next time one heads this way, my cats and I may stop running when we hit Minnesota... unless I've remembered my passport, then it's Oh, Canada! LOL

Definitely wait it out...a no-brainer.

Staying there can't possibly be as bad as going through a hurricane....well, not a category 3!!

Finally - I ended up taking a bus from Albany to Boston and Cape Cod.  The trains still aren't running as of today (Tuesday)... But I'm here..
