I rode it out at Marlene&#8217;s house in Lehigh Acres. She lost power for over 3 days, but had a generator to keep the refrigerator and freezer running. My RV was just fine. No damage whatsoever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241007_190042.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"14292\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241007_190042-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14292\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241007_190042-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241007_190042-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241007_190042-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241007_190042-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241007_190042.jpg 1620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Before Milton<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241010_125008.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"14293\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241010_125008-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14293\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241010_125008-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241010_125008-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241010_125008-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241010_125008-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_20241010_125008.jpg 1620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">After Milton<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We had back-to-back hurricanes this month here in Fort Myers.
