Glad to hear it that everyone made it out safely!! Hate to hear that about the car, but it could've been worse. Grills are nice during a time like this...

I took a short vid during the 2nd 1/2 of the storm & will post that if somebody will tell me where I can get it hosted.
Still no generator, and I'm one of about 500,000 in Palm Beach County without power. FPL estimates power restoration in my area by November 22nd. Can't even find an 7500 watt generator on line. 
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Hey sorry to hear about the bad luck. The wrath of a storm is unbearable. Im glad we dont have that many storms up north. Im glad that everything fared well, especially you and your wife. Take care, and good luck with finding a generator and straightening things out.

Hope all goes well, and your power's back on early.
Yeah, cold showers are awful! At least my friend's housemate is an electrician, and after 2 days of cold water came home and rewired the circuit panel so the water heater had power (we just couldn't open the fridge or watch TV!).

WHAT!!!!  I'm in Lake Worth! I had power back only 6 days after the storm, bro!! We were a beacon of light in the area of darkness south of you!
But you're still lucky. You're not on Lake Worth Utilities. 
Is my car for sale? PM me if you're in South FL.

Amen to that! 
I did get my power back after about 8 days also, but they kept taking it down every once in a while because some of my neighbors had problems at the poles that needed fixing. Next door had to have a whole new drop installed because the lines at/near the pole MELTED for some reason. I don't know why.... 
Got a two year old 5500 watt generator from my brother for free. All it needs is a rectifier. Keeps blowin' for some reason. I'm gonna tear it down over the winter & clean/rebuild the whole generator unit to try & solve the problem.
