Glad you're OK! I'm glad you took the dogs into the shelter with you. Your garden looks great.

[@TKCL]

We take care of them as well!

[@radmilamiljanic5977]

Thank you so much for finding time to update us and answer messages in tough times for you. I hope your families are good as well. God bless!

[@TKCL]

Thank you, we checked on a lot of people yesterday. All are well, only minor damages.

[@NicoleHoltActress]

You are so prepared! I'm proud of you two and admire you. Shelter, back up power.! And I know you have supplies to stay put for a bit, if needed.

[@TKCL]

Yes! Thank you! We love being prepared.

[@CrystalAbbyNormal]

Thank you so much for the update. Happy to hear you are safe!

Thank you!

Wow that's crazy. Im glad your okay.

[@peace-is-happy7046]

Glad you guys are ok..., We got rocked here in Charlotte, NC also 😮

[@TKCL]

Hope you made it through ok

[@baneverything5580]

I got lucky here in Louisiana that the hail wasn`t worse and only lost some lettuce, berries and some fruit tree leaves were damaged. Power was out all night and I ran everything from my solar batteries and didn`t need gas. I heard a roar again but this time it was wind instead of a tornado again. I live in a camper so it`s scary to feel it rocking at night.

[@TKCL]

I remember all those times being in a camper when bad weather came, it's a bad feeling when it's shaking and moving around.

[@rongray4847]

Hi Andrew,these storms seem to be all over the place. Glad you and Tiffany are ok but feel bad for those who have been hit by these storms. For sure changing times!! 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

Glad y’all are safe an fared well.

[@Asimplelife1]

We are in Woodville. Our little town got torn apart! Thankfully we were only without power from Friday morning about 7:30 until last night about 10. Also thankful I made the purchase of a new tractor and grapple to have the ability to assist friends and neighbors.

[@TKCL]

Stay safe, we are getting it again today and tomorrow. That tractor and grapple combo is a lifesaver.

[@johnkirby6547]

Good morning and Thanks for sharing this update. Be careful and have a great weekend.

Thanks, you too!

So glad to hear you all are ok. Man, it sure seems like yall can’t win for losing lately! Lots of work to do but that means lots of videos for us to enjoy! Thanks to all your super informative solar videos, I’m putting my Ecoflow package together as I type this!

[@TKCL]

Let me know if you have any questions about it. Ours saved us again yesterday, ran all day and had plenty of power to go.

[@gearheadd2]

The Texas Multi-purpose BBQ Grill was tested for storm proof 😀👍. Looks like abundant firewood to cut. I'm surprised that none of the building was damage. Glad to know that the family are OK.

[@TKCL]

That grill isn't going anywhere lol.

[@Steve8587]

Glad y’all safe. It’s terrible in many areas. We did well south of Tallahassee.

Tallahassee is for sure a mess, glad yall missed it.

Thank you

[@brandondomino5448]

Thankfully you all are okay. Seems like everyone is being hit with massive storms this year. We live near the omaha area and have had friends lives totally turned upside down and lost everything.

[@TKCL]

It's starting out being a wild year.

[@larrykusler5294]

So happy you're ok. With all of that water on your property I have to wonder if you are going to be able to get to the downed trees before they rot.

[@TKCL]

I don't believe I will be able to.

[@jimanon5681]

If I remember correctly you and Bullet were in that trailer when it flipped on it's side. Hope your parents and your siblings are safe and doing well.

[@TKCL]

It did not flip, but tried to. Luckily it was cabled down. Me and the pup had a wild ride.

[@billeakins2006]

it's nice to see that you guys are ok ❤

[@Hd36Wissayer]

Looks like you need to invest in a Saw Mill. You can salvage trees and make some of your own lumber. Besides firewood.

[@TKCL]

It's on my list

[@THEL0G1CAL1]

Watching you, Dan Arms and Dutch make my issue with not being able to see the northern lights despite living in NE for all of my life because of clouds seem minor. Glad to see everyone is ok!!

[@TKCL]

I got a notification last night that those lights could be seen as far south as Florida. I didn't see anything when I looked 😒

[@Tripring2000]

@@TKCLyou need to look tonight starting around 9 pm. Use your phone with the exposure set to the maximum shutter length an take some photos. The camera will detect what the human eye can’t. Tonight may not be as intense as last night but it has the potential as another solar flare is heading towards earth.

[@THEL0G1CAL1]

yea, I saw that there were some who had seen them in Fla. Thats almost like getting snow down there.

[@Tripring2000]

@@THEL0G1CAL1 I live about 120 miles to west of Andrew as the crow flies and we had a spectacular view of the Aurora. Both of our local TV stations FB pages were full of photos from people around here. Very interesting and marvelously beautiful.

Andrew, glad y’all are all ok and missed a direct hit. Those straight line winds are dangerous too.

They sure are

Scary stuff....but looking forward to the great content coming

[@TKCL]

Thank you for watching

[@ASiembieda]

Your trails are never going to dry up for you to get all your downed trees out! Glad you and the family are safe, though!

[@ASiembieda]

I was going to ask, but you briefly covered that your generator can charge your battery back up system. Is there anything special you have to do with your panel to make that happen? Or is the battery back up system that smart to where it will automatically take in a charge while other house systems are going?

[@TKCL]

As long as you are charging from a different source other than the panel, you can charge and run at the same time. So a generator and or solar can charge the system while it outputs to the panel.

[@pampilgrim2274]

Hi, Andrew! Thanks for the update. Daniel and DeJay’s hometown was a mess, wasn’t it!

[@TKCL]

Yes it was! I feel so bad for all these people who've lost everything.

Dang! That was a near-miss! Glad y'all are ok!!! What type vehicle was that black one at the beginning?

[@TKCL]

That's our Mahindra roxor. It's like a diesel jeep.

[@naturenut7695]

[@TKCL]

Well, some tree damage and power outages.

[@HalfPint5811]

NWS is saying EF2 115mph winds, we had 3 tornadoes. 2 were EF2. Tallahassee and surrounding areas are a Mess!!!!

Yep, I've been seeing the reports.

[@AdamDeal-KF0PRI]

man oh man when it rains it poors!

[@TKCL]

Yep!

[@baneverything5580]

Last year all my sweet corn was flattened so I didn`t plant any this year. I saw my bunny friend after the corn was knocked over and got a stalk and tried to offer it to her. Her eyes got big when she saw me coming with it in my hand and she started to panic. Ha! So I looked away, reached out as far as I could and dropped it and backed away. She chewed on it for three days. I had to dust my peas and ground cherries with red pepper to keep her away from them this year. I planted some red rippers along the blackberry patch for her. If she`ll let them grow long enough to start making vines there will be plenty but Bunny isn`t a very good garden manager from what I`ve seen.

[@ShaneZettelmier]

When that solar power, Hobbie starts to pay off. ;) I’m glad you guys are OK. 🙏🏼 God is good.

[@TKCL]

Very true!

[@dannymac4668]

Glad you are ok. Question…if you have the house and shop on battery/solar, how do you know the power grid has been restored?

[@TKCL]

Go look at the meter every few hours.

[@K-State_Nate]

Did you take your solar panels into the garage or did you strap them down vertically or was there not enough time? When the sun peeks out you can use the chop shop to charge some batteries. Did you get the gas tank installed by the chop shop? That would be really helpful if you did. Glad you guys are ok.

[@TKCL]

I didn't have enough time to prepare the panels. We did get our large fuel tank and just topped off our propane tank in preparation for this coming hurricane season.

[@buildingourparadise2696]

Hey Andrew, glad you guys are good and nothing major. Question though, my wife and I are living in our camper as we prepare to build our new house farther south from you in Florida. You referenced when you were as well and you had it tied down, any pictures or videos of the tie downs, were all sand, no clay. Obviously were not weathering a hurricane in it, just like you said, would like it to be solid in a wind storm. Thanks
