Hola Nancy, We have been thinking about you, Bubba, and Solitary Bird. We know that you will come thru fine. NOTE: Patricia is now heading slightly more west of previous forecast, west of Perula, farther away from Barra as previously forecast. We are praying and have all candles lit so that Patricia goes right over Cabo Corrientes…you and Bubba will be fine. I will send you another e-mail after the 10 PM CDT forecast.
