Fort Belmont


We are probably as ready as we will ever be on Belmont Drive. As Hurricane Ike approaches, we have gased up the cars and boarded up the windows. We have about six to seven days worth of water, and probably at least ten days of food. We have made the decision to stay. We are at about 33 feet above sea level and over 27 miles from the coast. At least 90% of our subdivision is staying. I think our biggest obstacle will be loosing electricity and the uncertainty of when it will come back on.

I will continue to update as long as I can on the blog and will keep in touch with my parents via cell phone as long as that holds out. Pray that God will be merciful.
