Rainy Saturday

We are getting a lot of rain this afternoon from the back bands of Gustav. The wind is now going from south to north the reverse of yesterday. We went shopping this afternoon and there was a tremendous sense that Grand Cayman really dodged a bullet yesterday. Gustav is now a category four having gone from tropical storm to cat 4 in less than 24 hours. I will be going to sports bar tonight to watch the Texas football game assuming it isn't so rainy that the satellite feed is interfered with. On the left is a picture of Ginger watching the storm this afternoon after we opened up the permanent shutters we have on our upstairs bedroom window. While Gypsy has been fascinated by Louie following him all over the house, Ginger has been disgusted and will not give him the time of day. We are getting more rain here on the back end of the storm then we did yesterday during the highest wind activity.
