I know you folks in FL love it there but I just couldn’t live with the hurricane hammer over my head every year. No one is immune from natural disasters, but they happen there so often. It’s a trade off, beautiful location vs imminent threats. My grandparents lived in Miami and I spent a lot of time there. After going thru these hurricanes, do you have any thoughts of leaving?

If you give me $50 I'll take that antique off your hands.

Your missing a 3 in that number.

Got out for a quick look in the Coronado sand this morning. Very clean beach, only two pull tabs in an hour.
Pulled a stainless ring.

I think I counted 10 or 11 people. Not sure if the leaning one is a person or a pylon.
Need more people for drops it seems.
That or a local sucks it dry.
At least you gave it a try.

I get it. I'm a Florida native and will admit it is very tedious. I absolutely cannot handle cold weather so I don't know where I could move to. I've been through 7 hurricanes since 1983 when I moved back to Florida from Ohio. A few were pretty intense. I could sell my place and buy something up north. When it snows I'd want to come back so l'll just stay. As I get older the effort gets harder. This was the 1st storm I payed for cleanup help. 90 degree weather doesn't faze me. It's not if a storm will hit, it's when.

I wonder similar about those here living on flood plains and next to rivers that flood on cycle here. Some insurance companies are refusing to insure people anymore that live on them.
