Im more than likely gonna stay

Archoverseer: head out man they said orange will be under 10 ft of water, I'm pretty much on the edge of where they said the surge will go, if you can find a way over you can hang out while it hits

Thanks, I just drove back down to my house, grabbed a few more things. Angie forgot birth certificates, my pistol, and I went ahead and grabbed my parts for my 408 build from the house. We no longer have a beach in the back of the neighborhood @ this point. The water is coming up big time. If I survive this my next purchase is a car trailer with a winch on it!!!

I took these this afternoon. This is a road that dead ends into the bay at the end of my neighborhood.

Straight out from that road is a dock that me and my friend used to fish off of when I was little. The water line is usually right below that dock. You can no longer see it.
