Here’s a link to the latest storm track for Hurricane Humberto, which just made landfall on the Texas-Louisiana coast. Seems like every year around Cooper-Young Festival time, we have to worry about remnants of a hurricane spoiling the fun. It looks like Humberto will move through northern Louisiana and then make a U-turn away from Memphis, and probably won’t bring rain to the area on Saturday. Still worth keeping an eye on though.
Starting to go into Cooper-Young preparation mode… making sure I have sunscreen in the apartment to put on Saturday morning… making sure the camera battery is charged, and so is the spare battery… making sure I have enough money in my wallet to buy food, beverages, and anything I want from vendors … making sure I have plenty of business cards for the Handling-Panhandling group, my Memphis Discount Dining site, and some of my own cards to give to people… making plans for a relatively quiet Friday evening so I can wake up well-rested and ready to go on Saturday.
Time to do about an hour’s worth of work on a real estate website, then I’ll head to China Restaurant around 11 to try their Singapore Fried Rice.
