Scuba Forum / General / October 2005If you haven't dove the Spiegle yet . . .
If you haven't dove the Spiegel Grove since a hurricane turned it upright, you may have no more than a few more days to do so. Wilma, the most powerful hurricane ever recorded in the Atlantic basin, is on the way. The Grove may not be upright for long. At the moment, half the computer models show that Wilma will pass directly over my house. The other half show it passing about 100 miles north. If it doesn't get me, it may well get Curtis. Damn. Lucky for both of us, Wilma is forecast to begin to decline in strength soon and hit the west coast of Florida as a category 2 or 3. By the time it gets across the state to Curtis or me, it may be nothing more than a strong tropical storm . . . I hope. In a few minutes, I'll be on my way to Home Depot to pick up a window AC unit and to the gas station to replenish my generator fuel reserve in anticipation of more power outages This is the first time ever, that I actually hope a hurricane hits Florida. If it doesn't, make the predicted sharp turn, it might well target Louisiana again and, frankly, those people just don't need any more hurricanes this year.

Let's don't get too carried away with all of this. Interestingly, a hurricane would have to deposit a large volume of earth to level New Orleans. They don't normally do that.

What I've seen will put me on the weak side of a back strike, which means rain and possible power outages, at the very worst, but it definitely has my attention.

I went out today to replenish my fuel supply for the generator. The 50 gallons I have should tide me over pretty well. I also followed the example of a friend and purchased a window AC unit. My generator will run everything but my central air system. With the window unit, at least we'll be able to sleep comfortably. Lee Classy guy you are Lee.

Let's don't be coming back to the south end of the state any more without letting your friends know you're here. One more time and I may have to burn my Reef Diver's hat in protest. At the very least, we can spend some time over something cold, talking over old times. Lee Haha - please don't burn the hat--it was a quick trip with a private class. I was unable to log onto here for a while after I changed ISP's up here in High Springs---then just got out of the habit.

I'm not scheduled to get down to the Keys again until mid November when I do hope to dive the Grove for the first time. I heard that even if it's not upright, it's still a darn good dive. That's the least I could hope for. Clint Free Spirit Activewear http://www.FreeSpiritActivewear.com |
