Thanks for the well wishes and words. I've been thru several including
Andrew. Andrew was an incredible shot in the arm for our economy and my
business, but believe, I don't want to make it that way again. I don't want
to see that ever again.

As for us, I think Miami will be spared. I'll bring in the orchids, watch
the overflow on the pond do it's thing and clean after the winds. We had
beautiful weather during Charlie. It actually made us feel guilty.
After all the storms, we walk the beach and watch people pick up dead fish.
Its nasty. There's are many costs to living in paradise.

Rich has his great hurricane advice here so I thought I'd retitle it for
all
east coast ponders who are in France's way. Don't wish it on anyone but it
sure
seems like Florida doesn't deserve another one! I read that this happened
last
in the 50s, that two big hurricanes hit Florida. (Glad you got through
Gaston,
Rich!)

If you are in the projected path of Frances, it looks like there will
be considerable wind with that one. Raise KH, take cover and clean up
after
it is over. If you have a generator for the power outage, that is great,
take a minute to be sure it will start, and get plenty of gas for it. If
not, get some hydrogen peroxide to add oxygen to the pond once the fish
look
like they might be gasping, about 1 pint per thousand gallons, repeat as
necessary. Or go to Walmart sporting goods section and get one of the
bait
bucket aerators called Big Bubbles, runs up to 80 hours on a D cell
battery.
