Oh well, all we can do is sit here helplessly and hope for the best. To make matters worse, Lynn will be flying home on the 30th for a few days (to check on the cats). She’ll be flying out of St. Louis through Atlanta, both ways. Tell me that’s not gonna be a cluster-fuck. Heck, she may get home and have no power. The motor home was our back-up as the plan was to simply plug into the generator in case of a power outage, but it’ll be in St. Louie with me. This could be a real mess. Hoping for the best.
You can get a cheap Alro camera system for very little cash that will let you set cameras wherever you want. Not that it could save your house or anything but certainly would let you know what, if anything, happened to your place. It easy to install, easier to manage and view footage. Keeps up to 30 days, no subscriptions required.

This is for the next hurricane, of course.
