Oh, by-the-way thank God for people like you that do come down and help the folks when these things happen. God Bless you!!

Hurricanes are problematic!! The house we own now is on the White Oak River as it enters the intercoastal waterway at Swansboro. Bought in 09, I clear cut all the lob Lollie pines off our lot. Pissed the HOA but we have since had 2 tornados go over the house and of course Hurricane Florence...

I would have never guessed it, racked my brain for a short time last night trying to figure it out!!
