Rhyno,
Thoughts are with you ... it looks like the storm will hit NE of you. Kudos to your wife.
As one who lived for three years on a barrier island (Siesta Key) of Sarasota, FL and was evacuated three times, I totally understand. I bookmarked the NOAA site and followed it excruciatingly closely each June through November.
Life goes on ... or not. You make your decisions based upon the best possible information, yet things (especially storms that take a right turn at the last minute) are unpredictable. Yet, it is YOUR life and YOUR decision.
As one who owned a pet (and was told I could not take him to a shelter), my judgement was always clouded by the commitment that I made the day that we adopted him from the Animal Rescue League in Chicago ... he was a inextricable member of our family. If I go, he goes ... if he cannot go, I do not go.
Pick your favorite music ... that which makes you both feel the best ... and enjoy! Best be with you.
