It was an experience I'll never forget. Fortunately we only had some minor wind damage to our home, many trees in our yard down, and the backyard fence blown over. We were about 8 miles north of the Coast. It was all easily fixed compared to the devastation so many endured. What the fury of water from a storm surge can do is incredible.
