Yeah, not so much d0000000000m this time either. They tell us to consider it a "dress rehersal" for The Big One every time they cancel two or three days of school, government, city services, etc., and we end up with a storm that is indistinguishable to the naked eye from the sorts of storms we get three or four times a week in the summer. Yes, the keys are a mess and the gusts are heavy and tourists shouldn't be out and about there, but here on the far-east-coast of Florida, it's just another ordinary summer day.

But it was supposed to be a school day.

Ah well, we should be back on Wednesday and they do build extra days into the school year to deal with things like this.

Hope everyone on the west coast stays safe and dry and un-gusted, and everyone gets home (to Orlando and from Orlando) safely!

Y HALLO THAR DEEEEEEN! No, not fleeing yet, but we're all expecting a delay in the start of the school year next week. And will it be GilmoreGirls!Dean or Supernatural!Dean in its behaviour, or art-creating HP!Dean, hmmm?

Back to Disney for us, perhaps, if we flee?

And in sad news, this tragedy happened at the camp I attended back in 1982. I hated that camp - I had a terrible problem with an evil cabin-mate that year but I really enjoyed learning how to water-ski there, and what happened last week was terrible. But it solidified my resolve not to ever ever ever let my kids go to sleepaway camp (even though Spouse and friends are trying to shake my resolve, damn them!).
