What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Well, I'm just having Coldstone Ice Cream for breakfast...
 
All is great my friend, although our luck was the misfortune of others, when entering Tampa the hurricane made a strange turn and not a drop of rain fell here. A few gusts of wind every now and then but nothing strong
I go through this too. You feel Blessed because you are spared, and feel true sorrow for those affected. The main thing is, you are safe and so is your family. (And tank). So glad you're good buddy

Yes this is what I have been feeling since Helene hit here and sometimes a bit guilty even though logically i know i shouldn't feel guilty over something I had zero control of.

You definitely didn't ask for that. And your family was affected. You have a true compassion for these victims because you've experienced this.
 
I am going to look at this one tomorrow that if he's as good as the guy that selling him says then I will buy him.

I would never forget about you or anyone else in the wonderful group.
 
Lots of people are seeing northern lights in our area so the dogs and my family are going up north for a little to hopefully see them.

I would love to see them in person some day.
 
Some people around me can see the nortern lights but I can't. I think they're are too many trees. Here's pictures my friend took that lives near our church...
