I was not sure how I was going to get to New Orleans for the wedding on Saturday-That was the scary part .
My plane tickets state that I fly out at 8:05PM Friday, September 17th, but it was now only Wednesday night, the 15th. Or should I say, early Thursday morning-I have been up most of the night, only sleeping between 1:30 and 1:45 AM, then awoken with a panicked phone call from Elizabeth notifying me of the impending doom upon New York City due to Hurricane Floyd. I have been tracking the storm for two days now and it was questionable if it would reach the Northeast-but things have taken a turn for the worse and if current predictions are correct, the storm is going to approach the metropolis in less than twelve hours causing heavy flooding and immobilize transportation in this overpopulated city which may take up to days to clean up: Nothing short from a state of emergency.
