And this hurricane just gave us a side slap... I can't imagine what the outcome would have been if it came straight into this area - wow.

Our government determines when we can come back to our own homes that we bought. Wow that sucks.

They told us we had to wear a mask, too.

Right! It's been proven in court that government is not, nor can be help responsible for your safety.

Many of us still lucked out here as there was no direct hit. Fort Myers beach was 100X worst after Irma. It looked as though half the area was tuned to rubble. Most of the trees were all gone without a trace, even the palms. The palms that did survive had no leaves. Several homes lifted off their foundations and floated away too. Sadly, one day we will get a direct hit here.
