Hi Kathy, just catching up on my follows, and wanted to thank you for the follow on riceandpease. Of course we already have a connection for which I am pleased and feel very privileged! 🙂
Wow! These pics are shocking and amazing at the same time. Pray all is well! I have a friend in the area who made out well but she said it was really scary at times!😳
Thanks Chanel. Everything is back to normal now. It’s hard to believe we were all cooped up while wind and rain destroyed some things. Glad your friend is well.
Kathy, I hope you were all safe – the photos really tell the story of the brute force of this hurricane and you were on its edges! Will it take long for the trees to be cleared? Was there any structural damage or flooding? Hope it is a long time before something like this crosses your way again.
Thanks Annika! We were safe. That’s what I wanted to show, the force of nature. I’ve never seen anything like that and it really is awesome to witness. We didn’t have any damage at all and they’re still in process of clearing trees from the community.
I trust you and all your loved ones are safe. Those pictures speak to a powerful force. Thankfully we live in a day and age when there is adequate warning to save lives, but we still can’t stop the storm. Frankly, the day man controls the weather is scarier to me than the way things are now…but I digress. Take care of yourself!!!

Thanks Ron! It is indeed. One of the roads, A1A is actually destroyed in Flagler County. It’s quite unbelievable.

We are Belinda! There was just a loss of power for less than one day. I hope I never see the day when we can literally control weather.

Agreed, and glad your loss of power was for a relatively short time. I’m sure it seemed longer!!!
