The video mentions Hurricane Irma a couple times. Here’s a video from The Villages Daily Sun with some good before/after video.

While we’re on the subject of Hurricane Irma, I actually rode that storm out in an oceanfront condo I lived in at the time. You can read about my experiences here.

Here’s what else I’m reading this week:

I just updated my list of things to do on 4th of July in The Villages. If you’re in town or just curious take a look:

I know next to nothing about home lightning protection or lightning rods, but this thread I stumbled on this week seems to offer some decent info. for those who might be curious:
