seconded with what Mike said above,,,,,I also got a 3 bedroom house that has a double bed and a single bed available for anyone who needs it.

in deltona,,,,nothing but some wind-blown rain,,,no power flickering,,,but I'm way out of the path of this thing.

LOL  We have plenty if you need some!  LOL 

After experiencing Hurricane Andrew (in Broward County).....this is much worse!  Our house is (was) white....but with all the debris flying.....especially trees, leaves, etc.....we have a green tint on the house, followed by a lovely decor of leaves covering the bottom half of the walls.  Someones recycling bin is wrapped around the speed sign in our yard.  The neighbors Palm Tree broke in half (not those short palms....those tall, thick palms that are native to South Florida) and it's sitting in our driveway about 3 feet from my car.  I could SWEAR my car moved.....(Toyota Corolla)...so not completely impossible right?  Purelogic can't sit still, has worn a path from the front door to the back door.  Looking out the back window...seeing my neighbors shingles blowing in the wind.  Purelogic saw a piece of someone's roof flying down the street.  But I think the worst if over (?) the eye is just about over us now.  The 2nd half of the storm shouldn't be so bad.  We'll see.   Owie

I am glad everyone is ok despite the damage. We did not go without damage. We had about a 2 foot branch fall and break a terracotta pot, lol. Guess we got lucky. The lord knew we had enough last year with the "BIG 3." It is still quite windy out right now, porbably around 35-40mph, with higher gusts. SO.FL. crew is in our prayers.

hi guys. god bless to everyone. not to brag or anything but i will also get power back very quickly, since i live right next to a popular intersection in nsb. (where s.r.44 and s.r.415) theres also a race track on the northwest side, and a popular gas station on the south west side. we have 3500 watts worth of portable power if something does go wrong. kua says only about 40 houses without power.

be safe

Well I walked outside the toyhauler is still in the up right position but it is camouflaged with leaves and debris. Picking up all different color shingles from all around. Ran into my neighbor and he showed me 3 huge fichus/fuchus trees are down in the road and a palm tree from the other direction so I am completely isolated for the time being. But life is good praise the lord!!!

Beer and margaritas work best for me then bring what ever you want to drink.  Directions are a problem since I don't know where you're coming from.  That and I don't want some crazy guest on here showing up that I don't know.
