Thanks; yeah, this should be interesting. He's preparing for it as
best as he can, which basically means getting anything loose in the
yard like patio furniture, etc. inside the house; his house isn't
set up to board up the windows or anything, so about all he can do is
stay inside and away from the windows... This is great timing too
since he has actually just sold the house and is in the process of
moving out... :-P Knowing him, he probably doesn't have homeowner's
insurance so I'm really hoping it just blows by!
Good luck to everyone else down there!
