[@jamesmc4101]

Good to see you made it through storm. Nice to have good neighbors too

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

You got that right!

[@santiago59]

Glad you two weathered the storm fine

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

Us too!

[@donguzniczak2689]

I liked how you showed the road dry and then snuck the exact same wet road in so that we could instantly see the difference 👍🏻 that was clever.

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

I try Don...I try. Glad you liked it! 😂

[@timinsandiego6979]

Good video. Glad you made it unscathed.

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

How did you do with the one that went through your area Tim?

[@timinsandiego6979]

@@LifeWithPaulLorena The one that came through San Diego County several weeks ago was pretty easy on us. We had hard rains a few days and gusts of wind up to 35-40 miles/hr, but that's it. However, it left the inland valley area (near Palm Springs) pretty messy. High winds and a ton of rain. As for the ones you just experienced, we haven't had even a drop of rain or indication of excessive winds.

[@brendacostte9652]

Yay you kept your feet dry ❤

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

We did thanks Brenda!

[@davekemo9683]

Was there last August during hurricane Hillary , pretty intense

[@daviscrt]

Glad everyone is ok, and hopefully your rv didn't leak. Thanks Don

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

Thanks! No leaks.

[@raidermike3244]

Wow!! Great show! My wife and I were there a few weeks before hurricane hit. I really enjoyed show.

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

Glad you enjoyed it Mike!

[@joyeyoder4783]

Thank you Jerry!

[@gthornton3]

Amazing video my mom , sister and her family road our hurricane Cilia in 1970 scary

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

Oh wow!

[@debsnowden4310]

Glad you all are safe! Considering LB wasn’t hit that bad, there still is alot of debris and sand to be cleaned up.

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

The local rotary club had a beach cleanup at north beach today. About 12 of us showed up, including nobody who lives at north beach or Playa Norte RV park. 😂

[@brianwright6522]

Paul Lorena. Glad you are safe! We follow the NOAA reports, for your area. That was pretty intense. How big is the quad. Looks like the perfect toy to have. Does Lorena have one yet. Stay safe. You always have a safe haven here in Sacramento. Fly the drone.

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

NOAA is the app we use as well Brian. The quad is a Honda Fourtrax 300. I don't know why I never thought about flying the drone the next day...that would have been awesome!

[@brianwright6522]

@@LifeWithPaulLorena Don’t worry Paul. I’m sure , where you are, there”ll be other chances. Lol. Stay safe my friend

[@captsam54]

Was wondering how you made out.. Glad you made it thru w/ no damage.... I lost Everything in Hurricane hugo on St. croix in 89...

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

Sorry to hear that Sam. We know other weren't so lucky. And then Hurricane Otis comes along a few days later and absolutely decimates Acapulco! Crazy stuff!

[@rcarey3965]

Thanks for the video guys - my wife spent months trying to convince me to go down to Baja for a “Fulltime Families” week but I’m worried about the massive volumes of border crossings. They were further up Baja and didn’t get much bad weather. Notice any changes either the border chaos this year?

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

Turn off the news and go to Baja! We have never had an issue crossing the Mexican border. We've been crossing for 20 plus years now without issue. Any illegal border crossings have zero effect on regular tourists. I know the "Full-time families" went to San Felipe when we came down last November. You can't go to San Felipe and say you got to experience Baja. San Felipe is a bad example of how beautiful Baja really is. The farther south you go the better Baja gets. Safe travels!

[@tonys986]

Your friends must live in the Hermosa Vista area? Our place is near Tres.

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

We're near Colina del Sol.

[@tonys986]

I couldn't figure it out. We head down Friday

[@robertb2468]

When you were in Florida did you ever go through a hurricane?

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

There were a couple of tropical storms, but Orlando just gets heavy rain. We left 2-3 days before that nasty hurricane Ian hit.

[@thebreeze866]

I wasn't to worried about you...Norma was no matvh for Hurricane Lorena

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

You got that right Chuck!

[@garypio2241]

You could have gone kyacking in the desert

[@LifeWithPaulLorena]

I thought about it Gary! 😀
