Tropical Storm Lee Churns Up the Gulf


It has been a while since we came down to our vacation home in Florida.  After surviving an earthquake and Hurricane Irene last week, we were looking forward to getting away for a long weekend.  However, Tropical Storm Lee has developed in the Gulf of Mexico.  Luckily, it isn't affecting the weather in Punta Gorda, FL (where our house is), too much.  Since it is summertime in Florida, it is not unusual to have thunderstorms everyday.  The thunder shook our house this afternoon, I thought we were having an earthquake down here.  Hopefully, the weather will be nice enough so we can get to the beach for a bit.  Anyway, it is nice to get away.
