The point... let's just be happy all is pretty good here and everyone can get back to work and we can get out of the house. I'm so ready!!
The main reason we decided to retire in central Florida is because hurricanes usually lose strength and are never at full strength when they arrive here. It would be next to impossible to have a Cat 4 or 5 ravage central Florida in our location.

Having said that......tornadoes are a different animal. They can cause much destruction here such as the tornado of 2007 that ripped through Caroline and Mallory.
