QUESTION FOR THOSE WHO EXPERIENCED A HURRICANE HERE IN THE DR.

[william webster]

I, too, was in on the shotgun - but the licensing killed my enthusiasm

I met him to buy a puppy.... he had really good German Shepherds (back to German roots)

I have been to the house -- Remote ??? understatement
and almost unassailable....

Nice enough guy... but I had no extended relationship

Takes all types -- huh ?

Here we are at 1500 feet so never get flooded and no rivers nearby. The neighbours are not taking the hurricane seriously as say they never hit here which could be true for the ones to pass to the south as we are on the northern slopes of the Cordilla central so the mountains stop anything getting to close. It will be interesting to see what happens if Irma passes north. We are surrounded by mahogany forests - close to the house, and according to husband after Georges which hit as a Cat 3 there was not one tree standing in Juan Dolio and all of the lamp posts were broken in two.

I can't remember which hurricane it was, but in the mid to late 90's I was in PR before and soon after a hurricane. The landscape of San Juan was stripped bare. Previously luxurious garden and parks were left with nothing. A few years later, totally lush again.
