Like the title states, this is an open invitation to those members living in the S. FL area. If and when you feel the need to evacuate, we have room for you in Tampa... seriously. Even though we don't know for sure where Wilma(Fred banging on the door) is going to make landfall, it's looking like S. FL is in the biggest danger zone if all predictions hold.
We have a fairly big living room and some other places where people can camp out. And, if you like, bring sleeping bags, pillows or blankets. Kids are welcome, they can share space with ours

.
I know it's a pain to have to drive all the way to Tampa, but you'd be safe. No point in spending money on a hotel somewhere. And, your cars would be safe

.
If you're interested in this, just pm me and I'll send you our address and phone number.
Honestly, this is a friendly and sincere offer. I know we're not really your family, but it's a place you can come to and still be close to home.
Peace,
Mark
