Just in case Hurricane Dorian heads this way, I\’m getting ready. At present he\’s expected to curve a bit to the North, and head for the Florida/Georgia border. But his current track is westwards; and if that doesn\’t change, we\’d better be on the lookout!
Dorian is a very strong storm. Even though his forward movement is only 8 mph, his wind force might be enough to let him cross Florida into the Gulf; and still have steam left over. Who knows what he might do then.
With this possibility in mind, I hitched up the trailer this morning and headed for the salvage store. I already had a fair stock of canned goods, but wanted to get more things. I got some cans of soup and come canned beans. I already had plenty of tuna fish, so I didn\’t look for it today.
When a hurricane threat is keeping me home, for some crazy reason I want pudding cups! I have no idea why; we didn\’t have them when I was a kid. So I got a 4-pack of snack puddings. Sometimes the salvage store has them for less than a dollar! And of course I hit the make-your-own-grab bag bins. I found a few new things to try as ride food. Aside from that, I have so much stuff at home from that grab-bag deal that it might actually be wise not to get any more for a month or so!
Just now, however, I need plenty of supplies on hand, just in case.
