I'm here because my mom wanted to live someplace warm and was oblivious to the threat of hurricanes when she and dad came here thirty years ago. I followed them three years later 'cause dad was in his early 70's & I thought I'd be close for as long as he was around. I've raised a family here and now my mom is in her 80's & really needs my help so here I am. We had over 40 years between hurricanes and here's hoping it'll be at least another 40 or more.
