To all the Moms who don't know where your sailors will be, my son said that the Navy is trying to put them up in barracks that might not be affected by water. I think there are those who live off base are offering for some to stay with them.  I am thankful that Daniel has a friend that let him stay at his house. He called earlier and said they had gotten water, food, batteries and candles.  He and another friend are taking there trucks to a shopping center parking lot that is open (no trees) and will park them there.  I hope they will be safe but the most important thing is that our sailors are kept safe.

Just talked to my son and he said they would not have to stay at the hangar this weekend.  They evacuated his barracks and he is on his way to a friends house for the duration.  They will have to report at 5:30 am Monday (all hands) and I hope he will be able to get back to the Base (flooding).  I feel some better knowing that he won't be so close to the water.  I'm still concerned because this is such a large storm. I remember Hugo but Daniel was only 4 years old and has no idea what a major hurricane can do.  Kathyl, Daniel said he just talked with Dominic before he left Base.  Prayers for everyone in this storms path.

My son has watch today/tomorrow on the Enterprise so he moved his car to a downtown Norfolk parking garage last night (Thursday).  I hope all of the cars belonging to those deployed, or out to sea because of hurricane, are not damaged by the storm.

So I just got my chuckle. When I spkoke to my son yesterday he couldn't figure out why there were so many cars at the NEX and movie theatre parking lot!  Jess, you just explained it.  He was like, all these people CAN'T be in the NEX!! lol  I'll have to tell him when I talk to him in a little while.

I don't know. But if they said they were moving all of the cars parked at the pier, then I'm assuming they mean ALL cars that are parked at the pier. But I could be wrong.

All vehicles were supposed to be parked in the NEX parking lot, and those that weren't are being moved there to protect them flooding.

Marine...please be careful!!  Hurricanes are just as dangerous inland as they are at the coast!  They can sometimes be more destructive because there are usually more trues and such around to be blown down.  Here in NC they are preparing all of our inland towns East of Interstate 95.  I live about 150 miles from the coast and we are expecting troical force winds in the morning.  You are correct, NC has a LOT of military bases in the path that will be taking precautions.  Everything from Air Force to Army to Marine.  Hmm...not sure how we missed out on getting a Naval Base. lol  Seriously though, please listen to the news and take all precautions up there and be careful!  I will be keeping you in my prayers!!
