I got a second tracking email today and they are now on a truck scheduled for delivery today. I wonder if the original email went to your spam folder. I wouldn't give up hope yet though, supposedly over 80% of the test that were ordered have now been delivered but that still leaves a large number of those still outstanding. I'm not sure which one of the "Big Brother" apps (Google, Alexa?) was watching as I typed my post last Saturday but last night, I received my confirmation e-mail from USPS that the test kits are on the way & expected to be delivered Friday, Feb 25th. I guess we're in the bottom 20%. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amelia Island hasn't had a direct hit in more than 50 years, I believe largely because of the "notch". There has been some wind and wave damage from storms passing by but nothing too serious. Our friends in PVB summarized it well for us. First, you can see a hurricane coming from a long way away...not like a tornado or earthquake. Lots of time to plan/prepare. Second, category 1/2/3 means stock up on food and liquor but otherwise don't worry too much (hurricane party!), category 4 means prepare to evacuate, category 5 means run like hell. Third, if the worst case happens and assuming you took all valuables with you when evacuating, you use insurance money to rebuild. Actually, you only need to worry if Jim Cantore is on your property. Otherwise, it is just a reason for a Hurricane party. LOL 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akcruz Posted February 21, 2022 #49331 Share Posted February 21, 2022 (edited) Didn't quote everyone but agree, would rather be near the ocean with the risk of hurricanes. We are about a mile and a half from the beach, in the almost 6 years we've been here we lost power for 1 day due to a hurricane, had a few limbs down ith a few "storms" but nothing big. When we were in NJ we were many miles from the beach, almost to PA, lost power for 10 days due to hurricane Sandy, one of our neighbors had a huge tree thru their house. At least people know how to prep here and leave if need be. As someone else said pick your poison there are risks everywhere.

So what are you using the tumbler for? Surely you can’t just hand it to the bartender and say fill it up with an adult beverage? Although that would be awesome. 😀 A way to stretch those voucher drinks. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL There is a big charity golf tournament in our community every year with many big names, Jim Cantore is one of the regulars, fortunately it's usually nice weather, only had enough rain once to cancel it. Fun going to see all the players, but yes we normally don't like to see him here otherwise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaniDanielle Posted February 21, 2022 #49346 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Back from the cancer doctor. Things are not too bad. She wants him to go for a pet scan to see if the lesions are actually new ones. If so, she will just change his medicine around. I asked her if he would be around for quite awhile and she said definitely.😁so, thank you all for your good wishes and support. 28 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
