    Life gets kind of crazy during hurricane season here in Florida. Irma was a huge storm that did a lot of damage. We'll never forget it. Looking back, I had made every conceivable preparation and I was ready, but clearly, Jan was not.
    When the wind reached a screaming pitch with the trees snapping and threshing, the horizontal streaming rain, flying roofing iron and destroyed fences as well as the unnerving sound-levels, my wife was paralyzed with fear. She stared and stared through the glass of the window. Immovable, with her nose pressed to the windowpane, the stark anguish in her eyes will stay with me forever.


    As if a blessing from the Almighty, the eye of the storm finally arrived. When the winds briefly subsided, I felt personally safe enough to open the door and let her in.
