Waiting for Cyclone Evan

All government offices and schools were off at noon today. So I'm back at the house waiting for Cyclone Evan to roll in. 

We buttoned our house down as well as we could last night and this morning. Weather stripping across the doors, all our outside furniture moved in, our beer resupplied, the garden moved into a corner under the deck. We're as ready as we're going to be. Winds for the storm are supposed to ramp up high, but the worst of it is supposed to hit our neighbor Samoa

My plan's to watch a Lord of the Rings marathon until we lose power. Then it's reading by headlamp and playing board games. Sara would prefer to decamp and hole up in the Trade Winds Hotel for the next two days. We're waiting on the 3pm weather update to decide. We'll keep you posted if the internet stays up.
