    No, indeed we cannot and this is the first one in all the years that I have lived in St. Petersburg that actually scares me. My tiny house was built in 1940 and I have no home owner's insurance. Nobody will insure me because of the age of my home. I stand to lose everything in this storm. I am not in a flood zone, which is good, I am smack in the center of the peninsula, but with highly saturated soil and strong winds my neighbor's two trees are poised to come down right on top of me. If you are in touch with the man upstairs, please pray for us.

    Thanks guys. I appreciate you both. I'll keep checking in as long as I have power. I don't expect to lose it before Wednesday morning, but you never know.

    I'll probably be spending the night in my bathtub tomorrow night. The bathroom, hallway, and kitchen are the only rooms that don't have a false ceiling, but the kitchen has a big window so it's out. No windows in the bathroom or tiny hallway.

    Got my playlist for tomorrow night started:
    Trying to Reason with Hurricane Season - Jimmy Buffett
    Rock You Like a Hurricane - Scorpions
    Here Comes the Rain Again - Eurythmics
    Riders on the Storm - The Doors
    Boom, Boom (Out Go the Lights) - Pat Travers
    Dancing in the Dark - Bruce Springsteen
    :D

    Hahaha!! That's a great attitude!

    How about - Love a Rainy Night - Eddie Rabbit
    The Thunder Rolls - Garth Brooks
    November Rain - Guns and Roses
    Songs About Rain - Gary Allen
    Rain Drops Keep Falling on My Head - BJ Thomas
    Blame it on the Rain - Milli Vanilli

    Maybe different genera's for you, but might keep it interesting!

    I absolutely love visiting the cost, but the anticipation of these hurricanes is insane! I'll stick with the tornadoes that come out of no where and last less than an hour...

    Stay safe. And personally, I would take out Riding the Storm Out just because I don't like REO.
