Hurricane Michael update

Given the forecast path of Hurricane Michael, Cupcake and crew have checked into the St. John Yacht Harbor marina on the Stono River, just outside Charleston, SC.

Although the storm is likely to be downgraded from hurricane to tropical storm by the time it passes over coastal South Carolina, and the models show winds “only” in the 40-50 knot range, we thought it might make sense to park somewhere for a few days. Plus, this place has a pool, a courtesy car, nice showers, and great wifi.

Tomorrow (but not Thursday because we were told bridges could be closed during the storm) we will get a ride to Charleston and enjoy the city while we pretend we are not nervous about the storm. We will also take down the sun canvas and solar panels just in case.
