Haven't ventured out on the streets today, I think I'll leave the roads clear for the crews to clean up.

Had to move a few downed branches, and one old downed tree in the drive.

Small branches everywhere.

One thing I did notice: Remember how we didn't have acorns for a couple years, and they came back...sorta...last year? Well, prepare to be fucking pelted with tiny coconuts. Looks like the Oaks have strengthened, and are plotting revenge. Fucking things are big, real fucking big...and they're still not full grown. Look out below...

5k? That's it? I've got a 12k always standing by.

I want to get a nice 12 KV propane system, with auto-transfer. I'd like to plumb for gas anyway...house is currently all electric.

Pfft, I gotz me a nice 1200MW one to hang out at.

Yeah, but you'll never get it up to 88 MPH, so you're stuck here with us.

No shit. Back in FL, if you had a generator running after a storm knocked out everything, you'd better keep a close eye on it or it would grow legs and walk off.

We fared well. The lights blinked twice and that was it. I did get some looks of envy when I was testing the generator on Saturday.

My neighbors know I am well armed so they stay clear of my stuff.
