she lived through her first cat. 4 hurricane

finally the worrying is over, incase you didnt know, there waas a category 4 hurrican named ivan that just recently barged through northwest panhandle of florida. i couldnt fit my car in the garage so i had to park it outside :nono: after i parked it i looked around and there was only one tree that could fall on it, it was a huge oak...i prayed to god that tree wouldnt come down. well unfortunately at about 2am i stuck my head out side in teh middle of the storm to check on the tree. i came to find the tree leaning at about a 45* and my car in the direct paht of it. then all of a sudden the tree started falling and so did my stocmach. it fell and all i could see was the tree, so i ran in to the garage and looked out the windo to find my car in A+ condition...i was a nervous reck! the tree missed my car by literally inches... :screwy:

ps: we got the worst of the storm...30-40 ft waves and 40ft wall of water surge that took out 3 of 4 bridges...i have over a dozen friends that have literally nothing...

glad to hear about your car, sorry to hear about your friends.... i can't really sympathize, since i live in southeastern michigan. hope that all works out for you and them.

Wow man, pretty scary stuff. You got any pics of the aftermath?

It sucks to live in Florida right now dude. I live in Miami, so I've escaped most of the "good" parts of the hurricanes. I don't have a garage, so as soon as they said a hurricane was coming I started to wonder where I would leave the cars. Had to end up leaving them on the driveway. Up in Palm Beach, hurricane Jeanne turned over a couple of airplanes that were left out of the hangars. I'm starting to think mother nature is just tired of the state of Florida all together. :uhoh:

I think she is saying no florida recount j/k Yeah my moms best friend lives in cali and she deciced to stick with it and has been home for all 4 hurricanes plus she's got another family sticking it out with her. (shes alone husband died) Hope everything turns out good for ur friends god bless them and good luck

time to tradein the AC for snow blowers. the hell with the stroms. i kow how you feel about that, i go nutts when someone backs up near my car. good luck down there, the last one that just went through you is on its way up here now (New York). cant wait for more damn rains.

Glad to here your ride is ok burly. Sorry about your friends i've been hearing the horror stories on the news. That sucks hope everyone recovers .
