Wow - it has been a fun and exciting couple of weeks here with the turbulent tropical weather we've had, and although it looks like we may get some more excitement the next few days we're likely to dodge the bullet again...Fay and Hanna gave the upper keys a glancing blow, and Ike's probably going to stay well south of our little island home as well, which is good for us but really bad news for the poor folks down in Cuba. I hope the mountains there knock the energy out of it and they are spared a full hit. Here in Key Largo the forecast is for tropical storm force winds Tuesday and Wednesday and a 2-4 foot surge if Ike stays on the projected track. We've gotten the boats in the marina secured as well as we can....thanks in large part to the patience and expertise of the seasoned members of the marina community. I'm leaving everyone here to ride out the storm, and heading out for Orlando tomorrow with Katy because I've got meetings there all week (work, work, work, work, work.....). It sucks to have to leave.
I'll check in later after the storm's passed with pictures and stories from the tie-up process.....

Andy-- Glad I checked to see if you were back to your good insights and descriptions. Katy? Did I miss something? The Cottages are in great shape, Fall is trickling into the air, but nothing like you are experiencing. Every mention of the Keys and I worry. Keep us posted. Think of you lots. Rick
