    Having lived all my life (64 yrs) fifty miles from the Gulf of Mexico, we've gone through that prep, hunker down, pray for the best, many many times. We are blessed to have only had one very direct hit including nine days without power. Thankful all is well for you.

    We don’t need “cows flying by” we get enough of that (figuratively speaking) in the normal news.
    What we need is calm, relaxed stories from a person who has figured out how to enjoy the simple life.

    Very happy to see that Lee did no damage to your beautiful cabin. Slim! Here on the East Coast in the USA, it was pretty much uneventful, too. I feel bad for those who did have damage and lost power. Not so much for those who panicked and bought up all the milk, bread, eggs and toilet paper, leaving shelves bare 😅. That hurricane stew looked very hearty & delicious 😋 Take care Slim.

    Glad to hear you didn't have any damage from it. At the same time, with all of the camping you do, you're already far better prepared than anyone.
    I lost my home to Hurricane Ian just about a year ago (9/28/2022). It's still standing, but progress is very slow. We still can't get enough qualified contractors to do the work here. At this point there's power, non-potable water, and elevators. No communications, and no fire alarm. The last item there being what is preventing us from moving back in.

  • @paulaj7682
    @paulaj7682 Год назад +27

    Seeing your practical and pragmatic approach to securing your cabin and yourself against a potentially damaging storm was a great way to showcase the importance of being prepared. Although you suffered no catastrophic damage, you were presented with a perfect opportunity to see how your cabin would fare should a future storm not be so kind. Watching you move about your comfortable and beautifully appointed cabin was a treat. I couldn't help but think back to the derelict wreck of a mess you started with. The transformation is incredible. All the more because it came about through your own vision, hard work and perseverance. Bravo to you sir and your obvious enjoyment of the fruits of your labor!

    You were lucky Slim! I've been through every hurricane since 1961 in Florida. I remember salt water being on my Grandparents property close to the old airport on US 41 in Miami, now I think it's Florida International University, which is pretty far inland from the beach by 8 miles, but I was a lil kid the last time I saw that house in 73. But if a hurricane hit anywhere on the peninsula we were in it. You escaped pretty easily with just rain. Happy trails and safe travels to you

NB is home and I appreciate your appreciation of the woods, waters and nature. Thank you. I will say this one thing, can't say as I have ever (not seen others) snip beans with scissors. Just a gentle tug and the next one's can grow.
