(Fete) Blacks elder kindly consented tp write the experiences of she and her family, who arrived at their cottage at Kure Beach on Sunday, August 7th, and while there was visited by Hurricane Connie. The story is very interesting and we urge alt of our readers to read it. We, Mrs. John A. Blackwelder, Jill Wise, Galen Quinn, Martha and Judy Blackwelder, arrived at Cottage 99.999, Kure Beach, Sun day. August. 7th. The beach was beautiful—wide, smooth sand, the ocean calm as a lake. Our entire Sunday afternoon was spent on the surf. Sunday night and Mon day morning, we-heard the Radio reports on Hurricane Connie, but being very optinn-t'c, as vacation ers a i ally are, v.v thought- -per- ' hap. would change her course. Bub, v 'a - fniddi of the after soon. S', :l coast officials had an con id ! ready C'-.ei ryviile neighs.'-. Mr- '''d M s-. Ti dy Cat pen1 cr' w;-- . t Hi" nisi; Cottage, ' Mis and Ms-. Ralph Towery with their family and Mr. Iteywood Keiidr; k wo. ai the Morrison Cottage •. Natur-. ally our topic of conversation .was Connie, and -her. behav.or. Would ... stay or return hone-'.' W« all decided to stay. Tuesday evening. Sue, Troy and their .-bn, David canie dow n to visit. The Radio an nouncement was similar to this: ' Hurricane’Watch, we will not go off the air, there will 1 >. a report, every MO minutes all night! Please! back your car up to your front door. Get candles, flash light and Battery Radio m case of power failure! Take ail precau tion for property damage at id loss of life.” We have not been able to decide after tills announcement, who's Rocking-chair was rocking the fastest, Troy Carpenters or Galen Quinns. By this Mine, the wind had reached a volisity of 40 to 50 miles per hour, the sand sounded like rain, when it hit the house and of course we had the roar or tne ocean, max mgiu, which made ouc eyes bigger. 1 think, at this point we would have left for Cherryville, had it not been for Mr. and Mrs. Bob Ford. They are Kure Beach residents, and Bob originaly from Cherry ville, came out to see if we were frightened. In their visit we were assured, we would get an official notice to evacuate, and we should leave our front porch light on all night. We all decided to stay. Mr. and Mrs. Ford, Mr. and Mrs. Car penter and David returned to their respective cottages. All through the night Connie came in Squalls. Wednesday mopping a bout 4 45 o’clock, she really be came forceful—the house shook and the ocean roared. This time we definitely decided to pack and get out. After these terrific Squalls, we would have a sluggish balm and by the time we were ready to run for the car, Connie had calmed her temper and we re gained some of our self confi dence, after all we were supposed to have an official notice to evac uate. The five of us held bath bath towels over our head, to pro tect our eyes and ears from the wind driven sand and ran for the Sand-Dune Fence. Holding the fence with one hand and our tow els with the other, we watched the ocean (not another person in. sight). This particular time the wind was reported at 50 to 60 mil es per hour. The waves had no respect for each other, one would swell and before it would have time to break, others equally as large would break on it, this cre ated a churning effect which caus ed a deep foam, the wind would pick this foam up and carry it out across the Highway. The dense overcast, plus the sand and foam made it resemble a snowy winter day. We went back to the cottage, each held doors and the lid to the car trunk so we could manage to pack the car.
