Re: Hurricane Coast
Actually, Paul, that would be called an 'address'. The forum just turns it into a link if you paste it in by itself. It's OK to do that, but many links are very long and detract from the flow of the post.
A link is more like the one I did above which requires you edit your post in the 'Preview' editor as opposed to this simple editor.

Re: Hurricane Coast
I usually hate to recommend that because there are so many ways to change a post that the post starts looking like a cartoon. Then we will all have a fun time pointing that out to you! :laugh:
Also, you can change your post editor in your Control Panel by answering 'Yes' or 'No' here:
"Use rich edit box when composing messages?"
I'm afraid we have created a bunch of Edit Monsters! :clown:

Re: Hurricane Coast
Yea I planned another trip so you know there had to be another storm. Let's all pray it goes south and takes out some empty land somewhere. I definitely don't wish a storm on anybody but I really don't want it here. We already have plans to be in Concan TX beginning on Friday but hadn't planned on making it an evacuation. Hopefully it will fizzle and die before it gets here. Well lets just pray for the best.

Re: Hurricane Coast
Carol, I wouldn't think about going to Concan while they have a hurricane there!
It could likely end up raining there as it fizzles out.
Reminds me of the time my parents took off to there for safety! They ended up trapped for a week!
Looks like it will go in south of the Houston / Galveston area.

Re: Hurricane Coast
Went down after work yesterday and loaded the trailer up and brought it home again. When I left from work the news guys had it coming our way. This morning it looks like south Texas. Oh well, at least I have it here. Shirley told me it seems we have been moving the trailer a lot lately. I said, get used to it, will be moving a lot next year :blah:
Keep us posted TC. You seem to have a better idea where these things are going than the news folks!!

Re: Hurricane Coast
Well, you may be glad you moved it before this is over. I'm hoping IKE goes into the King Ranch area way below Corpus Christi. There's less population there.
However, if the high pressure area that is dropping down from the north (and is pushing IKE south) drops too fast, we might see IKE take a turn north right along the coast.
That could put IKE right into land between Matagorda Bay and Galveston Bay.
We can only wait for all of these dance partners to mingle.

Re: Hurricane Coast
Right now as of 7:00 pm Texas time it is headed for Matagorda Bay. Everyone start blowing south so it turns around. We haven't had that kind of storm in a lot of years. Don't know if people here will know how to act. We left in 05 but the storm was not a direct hit for us. Don't know what a direct hit will do. We will be leaving one way or another hopefully Ike will take a different path and go to unpopulated areas. :question:

Re: Hurricane Coast
Well, looking like I'm ahead of the game. Sure hope it's not a direct hit. Hurricane Claudette was a category 1 when it hit Matagorda. Every thing on the gulf and bay side of the levee took a beating. We are starting to get things at the house ready now. Just incase....
