Tampa Bay emptying out was a sight to see.

Hoping for the best to those in Irma's path.

Hey Spike - Great news about your daughter and grand kids!

Jacksonville was hit pretty hard. As a Native Floridian - I've been through every Hurricane to hit this State since 1957. Irma was definitely one of the worst! About 80% of Jacksonville is currently without power.

Luckily, I do not live in a flood or evacuation zone. I'm definitely going to look into a Generac System to power the house in case of future events like this.

My entire family is all safe - Thanks for the prayers - Much Appreciated!!!

I used to live in Tampa and have been down Bayshore Blvd many times. Yes, that was something that I have never seen before! Fun Fact - The sidewalk along Bayshore Blvd is the Longest Continuous Sidewalk in the World.

Jan - Have you heard from your daughter? I haven't had power since 5am so I do not know the track Irma has taken.

She is fine. No power since 8:00 AM but has a generator & plenty of supplies. She has no significant damage at her place but there is in her town. Hope you & she get power back on ASAP.

Trick -- glad you made it intact. Looks like you are going to be "camping" until you can get power on again.

Jan --- glad your family is safe !!

Thanks John! Janice, the pups, and I spent the night with my parents. They live about 2 miles from us and they never lost power. Hoping that we get power back today.

Trick no damage to the house just brush to clean up. Daughter said air conditioner doesn't work. No kidding, my question is power still out her answer yes, there is your problem. The car is running out of gas so she can't charge her phone now.

Glad to hear your Ok Did your property get flooded?

No flooding in my area - But the retention pond behind my house is as high as I've ever seen it!

Glad most of the crew here seem to be okay. Hope others we may not have heard from yet are also healthy & doing okay. Speedy recovery to everyone.

This is Whitey's Fish Camp. A nice place on the river that I like to boat to and eat lunch. The Tiki Huts on the left is usually where I sit.....
