Holy….
We really are a fortunate Island Nation! We have almost all, back with power; roads are clear; Bus and Ferry service to resume ass normal.
All that! After a Cat 4-3 hurricane! (Yesterday!)
Thanks to all that helped. (Very comforting to see the Royal Bermuda Regiment “Boys” out in force clearing the roads, and much more)
Boys?? That’s the best compliment you could give?
So happy the island escaped this hurricane. Thoughts and prayers have been with you from Middletown,NY
