Hi, It is about 12:45 A.M. and they just said the hurricane is shifting westward again. It has been quite a day and night. We are getting squalls right now. The news crew said that the animals are rushing out of the swamps for higher ground. They had never seen so much wildlife. Especially deer and my daughter's friend just said she saw the deer in small groups heading for higher ground. They are trying to get out before the water rises too much. Tonight my kids were watching the birds about twilight. They were very quiet(unusual) and flocks of them were flying in circles. They would dart one way and then back the other. It was like they were trying to escape the storm and didn't know where to go. The large park near my home is a bird sanctuary. I don't believe these flocks were coming from there. The news was supposed to stay on all night, but since the storm just shifted again they have gone off for a few hours. Once it got past a certain spot they said it wouldn't swing back as close to us. It kept jogging a little more towards us earlier. So I guess I can go to bed for awhile. Thanking everyone for their thoughts and prayers. We appreciate it. Pat
