Seeing seagrass on the tops of pilings with nothing on it where your home was. The only thing left of my friend’s place was a pool ball.

[@johngauntlett4915]

Gabe, my heart goes out to all of the people affected by the storm. Back in '92 I organized 17 people to go down to homestead after Andrew. My boss donated 500 gallons of bottled water, my neighbor was the general manager for Penske trucks in Bradenton and donated a 24-foot box truck. We took all kinds of supplies Plus I took 15 Carpenters with me and the lumber package to do makeshift shelters to help people outside of homestead. When living in South Sarasota we were supposed to get hit with hurricane Charley and it all of a sudden cut in at Port Charlotte. I ended up going down for a couple weekends to volunteer with a chainsaw and hooked up with another guy so we could get trees out of people's driveways so that they could get somewhere to get food and water. Up here in the mountains in Murphy we dodged a bullet because the storm went right over us. From the next county North all the way up past Asheville they ended up on the right hand side of the storm and the devastation is just unreal. At 65 years old, I can't volunteer anymore with health issues that I have but I wish I could be there to help out some of these people that have nothing left. Our government doesn't seem to be doing much as FEMA had just come in this last Thursday. Reports from people say that FEMA looked like deer in headlights, not knowing what to do first. I sincerely hope they get their act together but so far it's been friends helping friends and volunteers coming in from all over. May God bless them that they can recover from this.

Makes me cry my friend

[@JonBrowning-y9w]

Mr blue Gabe. My name is Jon Browning. And I want you to know from somebody that watches you religiously. That god had a plan when you and your brother's on this earth for a reason. I'm from southern WV. And I love you. Thank you for what you do. YOU ARE THE MAN. Keep busting them waters and woods. Hope and pray you and your family are well. I love you and your family. I would love to have some of your food. Lol. Wild best in the world

OMG, watching this I had flashbacks of Hurricane Katrina, here in New Orleans.😢 Such terrible devastation, and to think that there are lowlifes with the audacity to loot what's left makes me cry with anger that's so strong I don't know how to deal with it. My heart goes out to all involved, and my prayers are constant for everyone affected in any way. God Bless Us, All.

When we get our priorities straight then May God bless whom He may bless according to His will and according to His purposes.

[@MrJayArt]

I’d loot

[@cfwb3222]

Hurricane Michael took everything we had in our town as well. 100 year old school. House after house. It seems likely it won’t happen but it will eventually get better. It took forever but we are here. Prayers up.

[@mazerrackham5959]

am from arizona, have no firsthand experience with hurricanes, but seeing the stories from this storm for some reason has been quite moving. seems a lot of people really lost a lot. watching cleetus' video taking his new heli up to NC to help with supplies gives me hope tho. the internet and people social platforms can really be of help nowadays. sending love to all

[@cathiwim]

Thanks. From East TN here, this hurricane kicked our butts, no joke. No-one has seen. Flooding here like this. fEMA wasnt out here for the first couple of days(i guess that is normal) so people started doing clean up by themselves. Still have a bunch of people missing.

[@robertlyman9789]

We just have a heat hurricane of 6months of 110 plus temps 😕

[@robb4866]

I live in Arizona too. I know we all face potential hazards living where we do. Here in Phoenix, Arizona there is high heat, fire and Microbursts. Any coastal home faces flood and hurricane's, In the Midwest there are tornados & flooding, West coast has earthquakes and fire, Northern areas have extreme cold and snow! Its sad to see the "after" of any disaster but I'm glad there are good people wiling to help others out in time of need. Stay strong and always remember - Mother Nature ALWAYS wins!

[@gregelgie]

Thanks for showing this, Gabe. It’s crazy how much damage this storm caused.

[@Booneyization]

BG thanks for sharing this! Heart and Prayers go out to the peeps of this devastation. 20 Year Marine here that served 11 of those year all over the Pacific and lived through some Gnarly typhoons. I'm always in awe when I hop on my bike and head down to FL and coastal regions and don't see houses made of solid reinforced cement on pillars like overseas in the Pacific. I know it's not the norm here in the US, but after having large steel objects slam into my cement house in Okinawa during a monstrous Typhoon and hearing them bounce off, I'm a fan now. Were I in this situation, I'd check some of those houses out and consider them. Again, Thanks for the Vid and here's to the health and recovery of all these hurricanes victims.

Thank you very much

[@LeskoBrandon59]

My brother in law and his family live in Steinhatchee , where they operated Craig Sea Gull Motel and Fish Camp since 1973 when his parents moved there . I haven't spoken to him in years but just Googled and found out his mom Helen passed away last spring , and the motel is closed . They were the kind of people that probably everyone who lives there knows them . David's father James married his mom Helen when she was 13 , and one of thereasons I love your mom so much is because she reminds me of Helen Craig . May she RIP . Was thinking I'd like to move from Georgia to Florida , but after watching your video I'm not so sure . God Bless you for caring and helping your friends .

[@archangel7987]

I live in Florida, I would say visit but stress, anxiety, and heartbreaking loss from these storms is overwhelming! The taxes and insurance is sky rocketing because of storm damage! One of the highest in the country!

[@43pasadena]

Devastating, good on ya for doing this for them👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@An9eL_C]

What devastation, Cedar Island was wiped out. My heart goes out to those affected and thank you for helping and sharing this video.

[@karenneal1390]

Is that cedar key

[@genliz4074]

​@karenneal1390 no, cedar island is a community between Keaton Beach and Steinhatchee.

[@karenneal1390]

@@genliz4074 thank you. I visited cedar key a few years ago and loved that adorable place. Please stay safe with these horrible hurricanes coming in.

[@genliz4074]

@karenneal1390 I will, as I'm fortunately in the panhandle, but thank you. Cedar Key was hit though. I only saw their Downtown street on news and it was bad, but it's close enough I bet alot of neighborhoods had damage. I'm not sure if they had large losses of homes but I'm sure if you search KZbin you could find some on the ground footage. Yes, the entire coast is filled with little hidey hole towns and I love visiting them. Trying to get to as many lighthouses as possible before the hurricanes take them. For now, I'll just send bar oil and lend a hand when I can. I hate some of the same places are taking a double whammy right now

[@datronheath735]

You guys are awesome for giving back to the community! God is sure going to bless you all!! Keep up with the great blessings God wants you and your family to do!!

[@shaneannandale457]

Didn’t think the houses on stilts would be gone,that’s just crazy!!!Sending love from Australia unbelievable damage and loss of life so sad

[@marcusroussy9271]

That was a hard one to watch, tear jerker for sure, Thanks for helping out, you guys are great

[@lesawilkes5673]

I wanted to live there, but it got too expensive for me to buy.......

[@melonyrichards937]

You are so awesome. I wish I could help. We are cleaning up ourselves. But we are helping out many others in the neighborhood. Here in Tampa Florida . My son and his friends are riding around in trucks pulling trailers with chainsaws helping out as many people as they can . One house at a time one day at a time . Thank you for all that you're doing. And God bless .

[@michelleh5727]
