We survived Norbert, the tropical storm that hit us yesterday. I have included some pictures for your enjoyment. We saw gusts up to 50 knots and at one point the spray off of the water left your lips salty. Vltava had one anchor out another to go. It was nice to see all that wind and know we weren't going anywhere! The second anchor got loaned to us in the last hour and Tim, Kevin, and I worked on getting it aboard and a bridle made for the anchor that was down. We finished just when the rain started. Sunbreak had a much bumpier ride as it is a lot smaller but everyone faired well and the kids and Kevin stayed occupied playing monopoly and watching movies. There is another storm headed our way but it is already weakening and heading away from us so maybe we are done for the season. I'm ready for cooler weather! Allison
