    As of now, Mayo doesn’t look to be in danger.
    Although I am disturbed by the fact that the storm shares the same name as my now ex-wife’s attorney.

    High school classmate of mine, who also attended UF the same time as me, who I would car pool with sometimes along with some others from here, had a younger brother named Ian.

    Ian came along with us one time and another guy riding with us called him Ion.

    OMG that was so freaking funny...everyone in the car almost died laughing.....
    :D

    Checking in from Ponce Inlet here just south of Daytona.
    Headed our way cross state.
    Seems like it may exit just south of us if the EURo which has been top dog is right.
    That’s would spare us the heaviest stuff.
    Fingers crossed.
    Hoping those closer to the landfall are safe and fair well.
    May come in close to Pinta Gorda again.
