When we met with Tim yesterday he mentioned he was leasing a house on the 600 acre Stroud Preserve just outside of Marshallton, which is very close to Jeff's. So today we headed there and had a great 3+ mile hike on well kept trails and even saw a few deer.

Walked around but didn't drive yesterday to let the crews clean up. Today we drove around in the golf cart and there is water and downed palm fronds everywhere.

We came through Irma unscathed with only a papaya tree down and a few missing branches and a lot of missing leaves. There is a lot of high water and the storm sewers are full up to the grates. Flooding is limited to the golf courses and open areas.

In addition to watching the coverage on TV we did do a little first-hand viewing. We used a pin-hole camera to track the progress and tried to get some pictures but it was just too bright.

Tuesday we finally painted the master bedroom. Alesa has been planning it forever and bought the paint a couple of weeks ago. So, we got it done and played a little golf afterwards.
