Swanky, it's true, it will be a few nights never to be forgotten. The Hurricane really scared the *^%# out of me. As we were driving around in the mini-van trying to find a room, I visualized all 5 of us sleeping in it, and then being blown away into never never land. Category 4 bearing down on us. I swear I think we were extremely lucky the center of Jeanne went just north of us with 110 mph winds. Yes, I hope those who bore the brunt recover quickly. I haven't heard of anyone in Fla. losing their life (missing surfer?) but I did hear of a few in another state that died as it changed from hurricane to tropical storm. My heart goes out to all of them.
We joked that if we died in the Mai Kai, at least we would go down as legends. It was a legendary night just the same.
Oh yeah I want to thank Al for telling me the story of Hurricane Camille the night before. I hate scary stories, don't ever tell me a scary story again. I mean just look at my baby picture man.......I freak.
