The storm of the decade is here.\u00a0 Winds are recking havoc here on Rock Island.\u00a0 A few trees came down already.\u00a0 One on the road to our place.\u00a0 I had to park the car and walk the last 15 mins in.\u00a0 Guest staying in the lodge couldn’t leave in a rush this morning- luckily they were all about watching the waves too.\u00a0 We’ve lost 2 supports off the front deck.\u00a0 Hopefully the rest doesn’t get washed away.<\/p>\n
