Chapter 25

  51 30' N, 0 07' W
I don't have a girl to write home to, so instead I get to update my blog. Consider yourselves lucky I'm not in love at this moment in time. So I spent most of this beautiful day inside hidden away, hurricane shuttres covering the windows to the outside world. The whole day revolved around the updates on Dennis as they came from NOAA. As we got them we would talk them over and plot the coordinates on our wall map, as well as in various other locations. NW, further away, towards Cuba, remaining NW...Okay, I'm boring myself now...so moving on.
As I mentioned the island was and still is focussed on Dennis, although it seems we have been spared this time (baring some unique act of nature...which could always happen). I was running late this morning, scanning the radio in my Jeep for their take on the latest update as well as for the latest Kelly Clarkson single (you know you dig it) but I found nothing and landed on a CNN update on the hour. Since it was not local the headline was not about Dennis, but rather London. I almost couldn't believe it, but sadly I could. I'm used to instant news at my fingertips and with no computer yet at work I felt lost all day. I did get a brief moment to scan through some Yahoo/AP Wire in the afternoon. My workday is over, I think we're safe here for now. Here tonight there won't be near as much tracking of Dennis' coordinates; just prayers for the one above.
