It’s a gorgeous sunny day outside and all folks are talking about is Ivan. Yeah, I know what you’re thinking. Why are folks in the mountains worried about a hurricane. Well, quite frankly, Frances kicked some ass in this neck of the woods … quite a bit of ass. Certain areas got tons of rain and flooded out depending on which river you lived closest to. Fortunately, the creek across from my place didn’t wreak any havoc last time. We just have to wait and see what happens with Ivan. It’s sure to be a hot topic here for the next several days.
