My Update on Beryl.....


Okay, so we were some of those people I posted about earlier..that go down to the beach to "see the storm"...I am happy I did because it really gave me some good blogging material. Besides I felt like it was my blogging duty to go down, tempt fate to get some good pics to report back to my readers.



Winds are all ready gusting at around 25-35mph. standing on my beloved beach felt like being in a virtual sand blaster, we have been there many times during storms, but nothing compared to this. It is during these times that Mother Nature shows you just how little we really are.

It is also in these times, that you see the true stupidity of people, for while we were down there cruising in the  jeep we came upon a bunch of folks, with tents..camping..  Really! No S---t !




One person sleeping in one of the tents, and another person actually lounging in a chair. A small child sitting on the roof of the truck and another woman who looked like she was upset at the man in the lounge chair. Hopefully she was telling him how foolish they looked and that whatever the situation they needed to get off the blasted beach.

Winds are whipping, the tide was all ready high, but getting even higher with an approaching storm surge, so it will be soon that the water will be up to the dunes. These folks will not last out there camping..even during this low impact tropical storm...Heck, we have seen just a tropical storm do more damage then some hurricanes



But now Senior is out getting more gas. We also stopped by the grocery store for a few items...and yes it was starting to become a madhouse..
and this is the lastest radar image...Beryl now has a eye....

  5. I have been keeping tabs on you and the storm. Florida is way over due for an ass kicking. We have not had much here. I would love some heavy rain here. Keep us updated.
