I hear ya.
No bikinis on the beach in a cat II however. Lol
You seem obsessed with hurricanes. You might want to know that Florida sees a few small storms from time to time but the big ones are 45 years apart on average for any given location.
Since your screen name if V-TWIN I can only assume that is for a a motorcycle. I ride, and find Florida has many more days of great riding weather than Colorado ever has. Colorado is often far too cold for good riding.
I read a sci/fi short story once (Heilein?) about the richest man in the world....he was the last garbage man.
Hmm I’ll have to check into that.
I’ve lived here since 1969, that’s 85% of my life and I’ve seen plenty of storms. It doesn’t have to be a hurricane....tropical storms and depressions are enough, and can spin off tornadoes with little warning.
Have ever experienced 90+ mph sustained winds? If not I can assure you it’s an overrated experience.
Having made a living in aviation maintenence for almost 40 years the golden rule was never leave any loose ends or anything incomplete. Check recheck and check it again to the point of being OCD.......after so many years I guess it’s permanently ingrained. I just like to be prepared.
Drives my wife crazy sometimes. Lol
But we didn’t because a lot of Floridians, like myself, voted for both legal marijuana and Gov. DeSantis.
“Democrats own the 75 and below IQ demographic”
If you need any more scaring, DeSantis won the Florida Governor’s office vote by
49.6% vs. 49.2%.
==8-O
I’ve been through several hurricanes and many tornados. No biggie. My house was in the direct path of michael on 2018. Massive damage al around but yhose come once in 45 years.
Colorado ping.
I noticed many yrs ago that many Denver houses had bars on the windows...
my nice conservative town has turned into another leftist dream because the rats figured out how to steal the elections and it will not end....
when you think about it, how depressing for our WW2 parents to witness the disrespect the radicals showed....
both my parents were in the war....
came back home to raise a good family and then SHTF.....disgraceful, punk, dirty, immoral college aged brats ruined the whole country.
in reality, the foundation of all of this is that the rats have STOLEN election after election...once in power, they make laws to enshrine their ratdoms everywhere.....
Colorado Ping ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
Sad that Denver has become a mini LA :-(
Yes, I’ve had the same thought often. Only 20 years after all that horrendous sacrifice to win WW II and these dirty punks went about trashing the USA. I remember how disgusted my dad was with the “counterculture hippies” and how upset he was when I grew my hair a bit long.
It took a nosedive during 2020 and the mostly peaceful riots. The capital and surrounding area was completely trashed.
We now refuse to go anywhere near downtown Denver.
