OK...back from picking the dogs up from being boarded for 2 weeks (after vacation).
I work at a kennel. We used to board dogs for one of the hurricane recon people. So whenever that dog came in, we knew something was up.
My work becomes crazy when a hurricane nears. Katrina was crazy. We had to turn so many people away who wanted to board pets for the storm. One lady came up about noon on the 28th needing a place for 8 dogs. We couldn't do it. We were packed.
I'll keep watching the gulf and Dean. Things could get lively next week. I had to go to Walmart today and noticed people with jugs and cases of water and such. There's an alertness amongst the locals. No frenzy, just people making a supply run just in case.
