Hi, Dr. Laura. Hi. What's up? Hi.

So I live in Cape Coast, Florida, and we just experienced another one of these, you know, one in a thousand-year storm situations.

And it's kind of funny how those get more and more frequent as times it goes on.

But that's not the point.

So, anyway, I live in a B zone.

It was evacuated.

We're right on the edge of it, so it was kind of questionable about the effort going into that.

Some of the question about evacuating has to do with where we evacuate to.

We're usually invited to my in-laws home under mandatory evacuations because they're in another zone.

They're at a little higher elevation.

Their distance from the coast is a little further than ours.

And so when the time came and the storm made the turn and the level went up, my husband and my father-in-law asked us to go to their house.

And that means we have a couple pets, we have some fat cats, and we have a lizard.

And so they go with because they're part of our family.

It's never really been like a major problem.

There's always a little bit of contention with my mother-in-law about the cats, but it's

from her, I think it's a little more, I don't think it's the cats that she gets upset about

us.

Okay, don't do an analysis, please. That's my job. Okay, sure. Yeah.

So whenever, when I'm there at her house, when the welcome wears off, it's palpable.
