Preparing for a Tropical Storm


So there's the first one blowing in tonight....lots of wind and rain.  We were preparing Baraka Point and CocoMaya, well the boys were, I was getting groceries, and some of the wildlife came out to see what was going on.  Here is a Whip tail Scorpion that was found at Baraka and a meter long snake that was on our deck at CocoMaya.  Dealt with a bit today, two flat tires and getting a plug for those..errrg.  All before this big storm hits.  Bikes are parked inside the apartment and the laundry is down, windows closed. Think thats about all we have to do for our place.  We'll find out.  Here is a link to the storm watch website where you can track the storms.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ Its Isaac that we're looking out for.  Kim is in the Dominican Republic in a Yoga Seminar so she might get a bit worse hit of the storm than us in Virgin Gorda. Hang on tight!
