Location: Cocoa, Florida | Well I'm on the east coast in the now direct path of impact unless things change. I'm taking horses to a friends house a couple towns over that have a concrete block barn with double hurricane straps. I will also be putting thr hurricane shutters down on the windows tomorrow and possibly riding out the storm. They have issued a mandatory evacuation for the barrier islands here which I'm a few mikes from.
I'm praying it moves more east or that the Bahamas slow it down a lot, 120mph winds are very scary.
Saying my prayers!!! |

This will give the Clinton Foundation another opportunity to help where needed. |

Location: Cocoa, Florida | Well my horse is in what I pray is a secure place and we're headed inland in the morning about 45 miles in, we will still have 90+ mph winds away from the beach. I've been a stress case all day boarding up my grandmas house (who's choosing to stay on the coast) and prepping the yard etc.
It's heart breaking to see some of my friends whom had to leave their horses behind post pictures of them spray painted and tagged with phone numbers and info. They couldn't find rides or safe places so I ask for your prayers for those whom have animals that are riding out the storm.
Winds where I live are expected to be 120-130mph and I can't imagine them standing out in it, not to mention the flooding. I hope I can come home Saturday to find horses still at our boarding facility :( |

Location: Under The Big Sky Of Texas | They were saying Matthew is a very strong storm and he could circle back around and hit Florida again. Prayers, I dont think its a very good ideal sitting this one out. Prayers for the animals that have to be left behind. |

Your being smart on this one going inland, please keep us updated on how it gos will be thinking about you, wish you grandmother was going with you maybe you can get her to change her mind, will she be by herself threw the storm? |
