Power just cut out here in Naples. We are down to a half gallon of vodka and 3 Guinness. Food is already low and eyeing up the older dog to throw on the Vodka fueled sterno grill for breakfast .

So so Hott. A/c has been off for what seems a lifetime . Ice cubes are melting .

We have pretty big water in Sarasota bay. Pool deck 12” under saltwater, 8” saltwater in garage. Boat floated off the lift but tied to dock pilings, which are within an inch of being submerged. House is built up 5’ so ok there. Think it has peaked here, water level down 3” in last 30 minutes. Guessing it was about a 4’-5’ surge. Neighbor has at least one electric car full of water. St Armand’s circle had a little bay water in it at noon, 4’ higher now.

If that’s not bad enough, my 86 yr old Dad moved to the F’ing panhandle last spring. He’s about 30 mi SE of Tallahassee! He told he was going to Lake City to get out of the way.

Would have been nice. We were actually looking at moving to the Panhandle soon after 40 years in Naples . Scratch that off the list .

I told wife let’s sell and move onto the boat and just keep going back and forth out of the hurricane zones .

Glad I got the boat pulled out and is heavily blocked 40 miles inland. Heavy wind could still get it .
