Getting Windy...

Wind's picking up but still not at top speeds. Storm is slowing down so it's taking a while to get here, giving it an opportunity to strengthen. Another four hours till it picks up with some force. We've actually had the front door open all day to catch the, err, light breeze. Starting to get some heavier gusts in the last couple minutes though so this mark Gustav's arrival. Still have water and power so we've been avoiding the canned food in favor of a continued feast of perishable food we didn't manage to get to earlier. Spent a couple hours down at the beach today watching the waves and the crazy sunset. The whole sky was lemon yellow. No joke. These tropical storms are weird...

Pictures can wait until the storm blows over... Stay inside!

I have pictures. The strain on the internet of the entire island updating the weather sites every 5 minutes makes uploading too slow. Wait till after the storm.

The strain on the internet comes from us watching live video on the island's Net News TV . . .
