New lights installed, siding repaired and painted, several trees were taken down.

Hoping to get a portion of the privacy fence back up tomorrow, but we'll see what tomorrow brings.
All-in-all...progress was made.

God is good! 🙌
We were spared.
2 pieces of missing siding.
No water in the house.
No missing shingles that we can see
A few leaning trees and a leaning fence.
Cleanup will commence this week and we hope to be up and running again soon.
Power may be out for 2-3 weeks, we're told so there's still a long road ahead but we're grateful. 🙏

It's raining here at The Emerald Cottage . If you're wondering how close we are to impact, I've included a photo of the approximate location, in the comments.

I'm all buttoned up and ready to face this storm.

See you soon. 🌀

Visitors are asked to leave coastal communities so that the communities and public safety services can focus on essential needs.

We've made a few upgrades to The Emerald Cottage.
One small change we've made was that we replaced our old outdoor coffee table with a newer one that is not only much nicer to look at but good quality as well.
Our old table served us well but it was time to go.
