Planning for Irene

Sharon August 24th, 2011

It may be that Irene heads offshore and does no harm, but it is a good reminder for all of us to keep our preps up.

Keep safe, folks!

    You just prompted me to arrange the ‘offsite meeting point’ for our family - we’d already figured out an evacuation plan, but what if we weren’t all at the house when the catastrophe arrived? Where would we meet?

    We now have a spot picked out - the local fire hall. Since my husband is on the fire department, any emergency big enough to require evacuation will end up with him being at the hall … so that’s a good spot for us all to go, particularly since the hall has lots of space nearby (so that we would be well out of the way of the first responders).

    I’m noticing that there’s a lot of low priced produce at the store just now - the almost-overripe corn and green peppers were really cheap today, so they came home with me. We’ll eat some, and dehydrate the rest. A good way to prep on the cheap. :)

    Free agent RB Ricky Williams has found the third team in his career he will play for — the Baltimore Ravens. Multiple reports say Williams decided on joining the Ravens after leaving the Miami Dolphins in free agency. He can earn up to $4 million on the two-year deal. Ricky Williams will wear Ricky Williams Ravens Jersey 34 and play for Baltimore Ravens next season. Everyone knows Ricky’s story. He was picked fifth overall by the New Orleans Saints in the 1999 NFL draft. He wore Custom NFL Jerseys and stayed in New Orleans for three seasons before moving onto the Dolphins in 2002 and putting in an All-Pro season with 1,853 rushing yards. He wore Authentic NFL Jerseys and lead the league in rushing in both 2002 and 2003. From there things went…down hill. He did not play in any games in 2004 and 2006, and played in just 13 total games from 2004-07. The Ravens lost veteran RB Willie McGahee in free agency this year so Williams likely fills that role as a complement to RB Ray Rice. He has had a strange career but Williams is a solid signing in this situation for the Ravens.

    Got the manual well pump installed yesterday. (c:

    This almost guarantees we won’t lose power.

    Back to the last few items - gather tomatoes, lash down a few things, prep the duckie storm shelter, vacuum. . . .
