I felt warm and fuzzy to get Jackie's warning note to all members of the list regarding hurricane Lili. I'm in Lafayette, La., and building a Pygmy Coho right now and had just laid out all the panels and glued up the joints. Then hurricane Isador came, had to haul everything indoors, then outside again, here comes Lili, back indoors again. Jackie was right, Lili was bad. Beat us up pretty bad here. Seems like I should name this boat accordingly! Like a baby born in a storm. hehe *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).

Though it wasn't the category 4 that it had been hours before landfall, I understand it still made landfall as a cateogory 2 with winds around 100 mph and lots of rain. Any hurricane can still spawn tornados. Was very glad to hear that Lili came down a couple of notches but also realize it was no picnic for you all. I'll cross my fingers that you guys get a break for the rest of the season! > Seems like I should name this boat accordingly! How about "Fickle Lili"? or "Swamp Lili" (I could go on... :-) > Like a baby born in a storm. hehe Are we going to get to see photos? cheers, Jackie *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
