"Don't hate me because I'm beautiful."

My journey home to Miami Beach:  I flew on a plane with Lois from South Dakota to Orlando, and we stayed with Lois' daughter Friday night.  Hurricane Jeanne is on her way!  Saturday morning my new mom flew from Miami to Orlando to pick me up.  We were supposed to fly back to Miami that same morning, but all the flights to Miami were cancelled because of Hurricane Jeanne!  We decided to rent a Lincoln Town Car and start the drive to Miami.  We didn't know what to expect, would the roads be closed?  Would the entire state be going crazy on the roads in an evacuation?  We took a chance and drove like mad, non-stop for 3 and a half hours.  The Lincoln Town Car is the our ultimate rental vehicle of choice, so comfortable, I took a nap most of the way home.  After a morning of high drama, I finally arrived at my new home in South Beach!  I eased into my routine of play, eat and nap.  Life on the Beach is Paradise!
