We left and took everything home. The trailer is against my well house with a camper trailer on the other side. I have the well house strapped to the trailers that surround it. We will need water and I need to save the well equipment. I live in eastern manatee co and as if the posting of this video, the projected eye path is coming directly for my location. My house is specifically built to survive this event. The damage will be widespread and massive. C y’all on the other side of this beast! 🫡

An ounce of prevention is worth a pounding headache. Best case scenario, let's hope that he emptied out the shop for nothing and everything is going to be left unscathed when the storm passes over. You know its serious when the Police chief comes on TV and asks for people who plan on riding out the storm to write their names on their arms with a permanent marker.

Praying for you Ray. You've become a part of life for me. August 21 my liver decompensated and I was bed bound, wound up having a transplant. As I lay in the bed waiting YT started showing me your videos. When I was so week I could barely focus your videos gave me something of comfort as I yearned for my days in a shop. And then as it went on I saw honesty and integrity, such a rare thing these days. And a great joyful personality! Even my wife has gotten into watching. When she heard about Milton she asked if you were going to be okay. Praying for you here in NC.

Hurricanes, gators, microscopic insects and heat and humidity. I'll stay up here in MA where our biggest problem is getting snowed in, which is kind of fun. Good luck to all of those who chose not to evacuate.

You don't lose house or flood damaged in snow storm, but just hunker down and rarely lose power. To be honest, we get more rainy days than snow in winter in last 5 years here in upstate NY.
