Happy to hear you are fine. I have family and friends in Florida and fortunately they are all OK.
I lived in Bonita Springs for ten years and remember the stress of hurricane season and being glued to the weather reports. I evacuated for Irma and was without power, TV, Internet, air conditioning for more than a week. Fortunately I had someone to stay with who had not lost power. In Naples at the time of Irma, they did not have enough generators for all the sewage lifts, so everyone was told to not flush toilets as they were backed up. My friends used zip lock bags for their bathroom needs.

Thank you. Naples is beautiful. Yup, the weather, even in good times, is the first thing we want to see in the morning and last thing at night. We are experts in the 7 day forecast no matter the time of year. I had to turn our tv off…even my favorite news stations couldn’t stop talking about Milton.

Today, the doors are open and the AC is off. This is a great time of year in Florida. I am venturing out today but not too far….there are still too many roads inaccessible and I have 4 friends now that are still trapped by water even though they never lost power.
