September in St. AugustineSeptember has arrived and with it hurricane season. June 01, is the official start of hurricane season but we don't see much activity until late August and September. Those are the busiest months for hurricanes in our area. Thankfully, Fay didn't cause much harm. Our oak trees lost a few limbs and lots of twigs and we had to spend a day cleaning up the debris, but all in all it wasn't too bad. As I write this the gulf coast is preparing for the inevitable landfall of Gustav, and I must say, it doesn't look good. My heart goes out to those folks. Right on Gustav's heels is Hannah. We are keeping a close watch on her as they don't really know where she is planning to go. This is the price we pay for living on the coast. It is absolutely wonderful most of the year, but there are times when it is a bit of a challenge. We're hopeful we'll be spared this year. Jim and I spent several weeks in upstate NY in July with my brother and his family. On the weekends, we worked; selling our handcrafted driftwood birds at several art shows. During the week we spent our time touring around the backroads and relaxing by the lake. The countryside was breathtaking with high green hills, deep lakes, and prosperous farms. It was wonderful spending time in such a beautiful part of the country with family and friends. What’s New:I have been busy adding pages to St-Augustine-Travel-Guide.com.

Build Your Own Web BusinessHave you thought about building your own web business? If I can do it you can do it. I highly recommend SiteSell, the company I use to build this site. What I love, is that they teach you how to build a web business. How to be successful. Dr. Ken Evoy, the founder, really delivers. I have never met him, but you know what, he seems like a friend that really cares whether I and my fellow SBI'ers are successful. Dr. Evoy has changed lives!
