First time jitters

Well that little band of rain has passed through pretty quickly and it is actually sunny out again. Our neighbors went inside for a few minutes and are back outside again now doing work. Fortunately we don't have much stuff and nothing outside while our neighbors with their elaborate yards and patios have much to do in their final preparations. They don't seem to be fazed by the winds and the rain was just a temporary annoyance. We are newbies and everything is fazing us. The latest NOAA track and the announcement on the Cayman Compass website is that the track is more favorable moving south so if that continues things wont be as bad as it looked yesterday. The difference between 80 mile an hour winds and 140 miles is pretty substantial and if it will just move south a little more (and not move north in its track at all) we will feel a little more secure.

Sorry for the false alarm. Will keep updating as long as Internet stays on.

Love you all.
