GOODNIGHT IRENE

As I tap these keys Hurricane Irene is bearing down on the Bahamas.

Here in Miami we are catching the fringe of the storm. It got so bad this afternoon that the wind threatened to topple a lawn chair.

The chair stayed safe but more falling leaves than usual fell on it.

That’s how it is with those whirling donuts. You get a little anxious but they pass us by 95% of the time.

SIGNS ALONG THE WAY

I took a thousand photos this summer.

Fifty ended up on the blog. I’ll be add a few more in the next week.

Here are signs we saw out west.
