Hurricane Warning

Well, we're bracing for a little excitment in the next few days. We had been expecting some rain, maybe some wind, off of the hurricane; we were not expecting what is now transpiring. A little after I got up this morning one of our dorm RAs came by and informed me of the situation, and that classes were canceled until further notice- who knows when that will be. So I packed up and headed home for Jones County, instead of staying in Hattiesburg as I had planned to, and went to morning services in my parents' church, and came out to the house. We've been busy moving stuff off of the porch and getting supplies, water, and gas ready. We're more than a little nervous; the way the weather people are talking this is going to be big. At this moment the sky is bright and blue outside; it's insanely hot and humid. It'll be a different picture in a few more hours...
