I had heard last night from someone at the dorm that a hurricane was coming, but I thought they were joking. Turns out, they weren't joking, but it probably won't be a direct hit. I'm okay with that. I've always been a big weather geek, so you can bet just being able to track a real hurricane as it comes within a few hundred miles of me is the ultimate in coolness. Plus, we'll probably get to see some really big swells over the next few days on the ocean.
For my post-work workout, I found and checked-out the nearly forgotten Seaside Trail. It actually begins within 100 feet of the dorm. It winds a little over 1.5 miles to a residential street which leads to the ocean in 0.2 miles. In other words, I found a much safer route to get to the ocean from the dorm as opposed to running on the side of Stanley Brook Road. From the looks of it, I'm guessing only a handful of other adventurers like me have been on that trail lately.
This evening I did the dreaded task of laundry and the not-dreaded-at-all task of preparing for my talk/sermon/message for this Sunday. Both tasks took way longer than I expected. The talk needs some more work, but the Holy Spirit has been teaching me some really cool things already while working on it. I'm excited to deliver this one.
Today's picture of the day is a screen shot of the projected path for Hurricane Arthur as of this evening. Looks like there's a slight chance we could be in the path of the actual storm. Otherwise, we'll just have some winds and big waves. It'll be interesting to look back on this forecast later on in the week as the storm moves and develops.
