She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: She is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage. ... she never wounds 'till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, and cautioned him against the danger of treading on her.
-Benjamin Franklin

A Change Of Seasons

So much for daily posting whilst on vacation. We've had a bit of a shift in the plans.

See, since last Thursday we have been staying in the company-owned beach house on northern Padre Island in Corpus Christi, TX. We usually come down here twice a year: Memorial Day and Labor Day, which you'll notice pretty much runs right before and right after Hurricane Season...

This year, due to current or potential workloads, we had to delay our trip until the end of June/beginning of July, which you'll notice pretty much runs right into the beginning of Hurricane Season. And, by pretty much, I mean dead-on-balls at it.

Alex has forced us to do two things: leave two full days earlier (since landfall is expected early Thursday which will put the outer bands in our laps sometime Wednesday) and try to cram said two days into the last two days.

That leaves us, today, cleaning up the house, packing, and getting ready to leave late this afternoon as opposed to late Thursday or even Friday morning.

FFFFFfffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.....

Feel free to drop a line. You don't have to keep it clean - God knows, I won't - but keep it above the belt.
