Sand bags?

So, there is a hurricane headed this way. Could that explain why they have been filling sandbags all day long?

What a vacation this is turning out to be!!

Coastal Flooding

My beach “look”...

Getting lots of sun tho' today is rainy and much cooler. Off to the beach in a few minutes.

We went to the boardwalk to do some shopping and monstrous black clouds growled in from the West. We wisely headed over to grab the bus just as the skies let loose their furious downpour.

We took the bus as far north as it runs (145th Street) and the street flooding was tremendous.

By the time our return trip got us to 36th Street, the rain had abated enough for us to make it back to the room without getting drenched.

Rain Date

So after taking yesterday as a day off for both my son drenched skin as well as my slightly blistered feet, I got up early and was at the waters edge by 6 AM. However, I should have checked the weather report before I venture down as we are facing a few hours of rain and storms.

Me and the sunrise

I wasn't even sure if we would still be here in Ocean City today. Yesterday Michael was a very very ill and had to be rushed to the hospital by ambulance. We never got a clear diagnosis of what was causing his severe abdominal pain but it ranges from possible gallstones to a bowel obstruction. Whatever it is or was it pretty much ate up all of yesterday.

We did make it back to the room late last night after about six hours in the ER. He was doing much better when I went to bed around 10 PM last night and as it is only 6:30 in the morning he has not gotten up yet.

So I'm enjoying another nice sunrise on the beach wondering what will happen next.
