Bring in the Outdoor Furniture

By
Real Estate Agent with TOUCHSTONE REAL ESTATE

Batten Down the Hatches, well I ain’t got no hatches but what I have is outdoor furniture, potted plants, a swing, a gas lamp and small benches.  Yesterday was the day to move stuff into the garage, move some stuff around and make room for the items in the garage.  It’s an easy task but time consuming, 21 chairs, 10 potted plants and a swing which living here I connected with quick removal hooks for times like this.

Since Hurricane Nicole first cone of probability arrived a few days ago I have seen the center line 50 miles west, 20 miles east and once coming in my back door.  As of the latest forecast I am now completely out of the cone but could still see wind gust to 50 MPH.  Living in Florida I am generally always prepared for times like this so no need running out and buying a bunch of stuff the only trip I need to make before the store is Total Wine!

Good morning Dick,

I see you have priorities right! Living in FL means always be ready to shift and be prepared. 50 MPH is nothing to sneeze at so good to move patio items in the garage!

Fortunately the position of our home, we rarely have to move our outdoor furniture inside even when we have had wind gusts of 50mph. Of course there are no small planters around.  And snow is a rare thing. Our veranda is covered which allows the furniture to remain where it is.

We don't have anything not under cover as the dust is bad enough under cover.

Hello Dick Betts, fill that garage up but make room for your golf cart also and get to the wine store before they shut down.
