So on my way to LA, I stop in Fort Lauderdale from Cancun. Because I’m flying on standby pass provided by a pilot friend of ours (thanks Hank!), I am unable to get on the flight from Lauderdale to LA because it’s fully booked. So, I decide to rent a car and drive down to Miami to visit the folks at Dinner Key. I wasn’t about to drive north to Daytona, because it looked like I-95 will be a mess the next day because of all the evacuations from that area.
So now they decided to close Fort Lauderdale airport today at noon, thus scrubbing my flight. This means that I’m now fortunate enough to enjoy yet another hurricane! Woo-hoo.
I’m helping out around the dock, helping everyone get their boats ready, and I guess there will be some hurricane parties tonight. The storm’s moving fast, so hopefully it will not take long before things return to normal. I just hope they reopen the airport tomorrow.
More to come, I’m sure.
