Tropical Storm Hanna part 2

As promised these are photos taken at Wrightsville Beach, NC just an hour ago. I was pouring down rain when we first got there but it quickly went to a sprinkle so we didn't get soaking wet! This is the north part of the beach. We went that way 1st because it's usually where all the news people are, and boy were they ever there! As you can see here. This is at the Holiday Inn Sunspree, where I took most of my pictures. Josh and I also met 2 ladies that actually drove down here from Durham just to see the beach with the storm coming in and they are spending the night! I thought that was taking things a little too far! But everyone is different!
Now here's one of me in front of the choppy surf with my nice cup of Cafe Mocha from Port City Java! There's nothing better!! Except maybe the beach with a beer! :)

The next 2 are taken at the south end of Wrightsville Beach at Masonboro Inlet. If you look very closely you can see the jetty, I tried to get a good pic of it. This was about the time my camera battery died. But no fear, I have fresh charged ones ready to capture some more fond memories of a tropical storm, which is supposed to be a hurricane by landfall later tonight.

As you can see the sun actually started coming out a little. It's trying to peek out now at our house, we are only a 15 minute drive to the beach. Well I will post more info and pics as I have them! For now we are just relaxing and having a beer and waiting for Hanna to get here! :)

Tropical Storm Hanna

Here are 2 pics that describe my weekend! Tropical Storm Hanna is expected to make landfall tonight. The people in Wilmington are going nuts!! You can hardly find bread, water or milk. You would think Hurrican Ike was approaching us! I think this one sounds like a good reason for a storm party!! :) Of course we have the necessary items like bread, bottled water, batteries, beer, wine, beer, wine! :) I'm almost always prepared with batteries because finding those at this point in this town would be like finding a needle in a haystack! That's not streching the truth! So for now we just sit and wait for Hanna. I'll post later about how things are going. I'll try to take pics to post of water and damage also, although I don't think there will be too much, damage that is. I think we may ride to the beach later on so I'll get some good pics of the surf to post!! It's pretty eerie looking when there's a storm out there!
