Good morning, Steemians!
I just wanted to make an update post letting all of you guys know who were following my hurricane updates that we made it to Panama City Beach alive and well. We went through some crazy traffic, and saw crazy lines for gas.
Luckily, we had put a 5 gallon tank in the trunk filled with gas although the smell inside the car was terrible so we had to keep opening the windows every once in a while.
This ensured that we made it without having to wait in the long lines for gas on the way.
We weren't going to have anywhere to stay, but my friend told me we could stay with his family in this three story house they rented out. It took us 13 hours to get here from North Fort Myers, but we made it to Panama City Beach!

As of right now, it looks like the hurricane is going to come up the west coast of Florida, which would be devastating for our home. I'm just glad to be with friends and be alive though. You can rebuild a home, but not a life!
I will continue to keep you guys posted.
