September 8th, we got a close call from Earl, a Category 2 hurricane. It was just a lot of rain and wind, because it missed us.
Then later in the month, Fiona came by as a Category 3 hurricane. We prepared for this one a lot more, and brought outdoor things inside. Princess found a spot on the mats from the balcony furniture.
It didn’t take too long to get power back after the storm, and the generator was awesome to have in the meantime, as always. We didn’t get much damage except a lot of leaves coming down from the palm tree, and the plants getting beaten up.
But the real big deal is when a storm comes late summer like this, it takes down a LOT of early avocadoes! I had 14 bags all together to give away. Then of course they keep falling for months, since this is the start of their season!
Thanks everyone who took some, and if we get another storm this September, there will be more!
