We may be later getting there tomorrow. Original plan was early
afternoon......nature changed that. Last night we had one storm after
another. I am struggleing to keep water out of my piggie lab and
basement. I have 3 count them 3 sumps. One failed and been nursing the
others today and now, more drenching rains. We have seriousd water
problems. can't leave until the place is secured. On the brighter side,
I may be able to conoe for miles after tonight. Happy FD.
