HANNNA NOW A TROPICAL STORM



Well Hanna is now a Tropical Storm again but is suppose to strengthen back to a Hurricane later today. I have enclosed the new track which Hanna is suppose to take which still has it coming up the East Coast the new few days. It appears we should get some much needed rain from this system. Several schools have already moved the high school football games to Thursday night because of the impending storm. I have posted a link below to the photos AL took Friday night of the Colonial Heights vs Thomas Jefferson football game. The price of oil continues to drop so maybe gas will get back to $3.00 a gallon which will seem like a bargain compared to the $3.99 a gallon. It looks like I am going to have to cut the grass again this week because of all the rain we had the last week, I don't think i have cut the grass but once since late June. The NFL starts tomorrow night when the Redskins play the New York Giants at the Meadowlands. MICKEY

I learned that the only way you are going to get anywhere in life is to work hard at it. Whether you're a musician, a writer, an athlete or a businessman, there is no getting around it. If you do, you'll win - if you don't you won't. ~ Bruce Jenner

VCU is having there emergency siren and student notification test today. I hope Lee doesn't get scared he never liked fire drills.

HAHA did they tell told the parents and not the students. I didn't like fire drills either.

Melanie said...

I saw it on the news today that they were doing the drill - they don't tell the parents anything anymore - I don't even get to see his grades unless he gives me access-at 18 they are considered adults and their information is private.
