Not in any particular order – need to go clean up. Will add some narrative and stuff later.
Boats apparently all okay – but haven’t been up or down the creek yet.
Phones are out – have generator and satellite though. Eye went right over…
water coming up on cabin
boats leaving before storm
cabin after storm
cabin before the storm
water covering 5 cinder blocks on the cabin pilings – still came higher
boards coming off – generator going

dock covered - pilings starting to go under
little bit of damage on dock – hardly anything, really
garage another story – stuff was above historical high, unfortunately, water was, too.
red line marks historical high – watermark marks actual high…

Paul kept a log:
5:30 a.m. water breached the bulkhead
8:00 a.m. water at bottom of dock
9:55 a.m. reached the first landing of cabin stairs
11:00 a.m. 14” in the basement
about 1:00ish the eye passed over, we had a lull, I took a nap.
About 4:30ish I woke to super strong winds from the opposite direction,
Water was on the way down, by 6:00 we could walk the dog.
This morning, we’re soggy but healthy and relatively happy. Lost a few things, have a lot of work to do, but hey – you’ll have that.
Breakfast with the dockmaster Sunday morning – bring your mudders.
