stay on track Flossie

Well, everyone in Hawaii is getting geared up for Flossie. We moved Confetti from the end-tie to an inside slip in the yacht club and doubled up on all our dock lines. And then we got on a little plane this afternoon and flew toward (!) the storm. If Flossie stays on track Honolulu shouldn't get more than just heavy rains, and possible high water levels and some surge in the marina. For now we are looking okay and will spend the next few days checking out Lana'i, a beautiful, dry and very red volcanic island.

The NOLS community had sad news this past weekend when Rocky Mountain Branch Director, Pete Absolon, was killed in a climbing accident. Pete was a truly amazing guy and our deepest sympathies go out to his family and friends.
