The Beach Spoke to Me in a Cat 4 Hurricane!
from The Beach Speaks · host Paige Friend
Send us Fan MailA friend of mine from “up North” asked me what’s it like to be in a hurricane? That got me thinking about my past 22 years living in Florida. How many hurricanes had I been in? I grew up in the mountains of Pennsylvania. The only “natural disasters” I ever experienced were blizzards - which were fairly common and not all that disastrous. It wasn’t until I moved to Florida that I had ever been in an actual natural disaster - a hurricane.I had just moved to Orlando when four hurricanes rolled through Florida - one right after the other: Charlie, Francis, Ivan, and Jeanne. Don’t you love how hurricanes have “everyday” names?It makes sense to give hurricanes a name because it makes it really easy to talk about them later, like: “Remember when Andrew came one night and took our roof ?” Or, “Katrina - yeah - she was bad” And, like people, hurricanes have different personalities, are difficult to predict, and you never quite know what they’re going to do.In this episode, I tell my story of two significant hurricanes in my life (so far): my first, Charley, and my last, Ian. The hurricanes were roaring, the beach was speaking, and I was listening!Listen to The Beach Speaks on Buzzsprout Apple, or Spotify (or your favorite Podcast Player)Support the show (for free) by following (it’s free) on Apple and Spotify and sharing it with your friends (did I mention it’s free?)Click here and buy me a virtual coffee to help keep the podcast going: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/paigefriend (it takes caffeine and cash to keep this podcast afloat) Leave a voicemail! https://www.speakpipe.com/TheBeachSpeaksFollow on the Socials:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebeachspeaks/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheBeachSpeaksWeb: https://the-beach-speaks.onpodium.com/PODCAST LINKS:Leave a review! on Apple and Spotify and share it with your friends!Want to share your beach story? https://thebeachspeaks.com/contactPurchase your Beach Speaks coastal essence room spray! https://sahuoils.com/meagldSupport the podcast on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/user?u=77845359 Subscribe to the Podcast: https://thebeachspeaks.com/Listen and Subscribe on YouTubeInstagram https://www.instagram.com/thebeachspeaks/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheBeachSpeaks
