    Thanks for letting us see the aftermath, you appear to have fared better than some especially like St Elizabeth and southern parishes such a pity it seems to have destroyed so much fruit bearing trees , thankfully loss of life has been minimal, Big up the boys for jumping in to help cleaning up, fantastic idea drive out to charge the phone's, Hope the power is restored soon. Blessings from down under 🦘🇦🇺👍🇯🇲👍🏿

    Tyler, you have a true passion for teaching children in all that you do.
    Not only are the boys blessed to have you as a male role model, but you always find the opportunity to teach them (and us) something new!
    Sonia, my girl! That breadfruit 🤤 looked so good! I love the meals you prepare!
    Boys, you are doing amazing, we see the improvements, and that wheelbarrow!!!! Pristine indeed😂

    Glad to see that your side of Ja feared well in comparison to many other areas.
    It's heartwarming to see the boys happily helping to clean up in the aftermath of the hurricane.
    The chicken coop was really built to last. I was thinking maybe it would be damaged.
    The hurricane makes it easier for you to plant your own fruit trees. In another 2/3 years, you can have your own fruit bearing trees.
    Great team work, guys.

    Tyler, you guys are lucky....you only received the weakest winds. In my neck of the woods, Manchester, it was very bad as the eye of the hurricane grazed most of the southern coast of the island. I lost a lot of trees but my house is ok. St Elizabeth, Clarendon were badly hit. Hope you'll get back light soon. Nice to see the boys being helpful . They are displaying a better attitude these days.👍

    I kept getting migraines, and then I realized it's because you're speeding up your camera it's giving me motion sickness, and that caused a trigger. MIGRAINE 😢

Flow service is non existent and Digicel is sketchy. But grateful all is well. We have a generator that supplies the whole house, and we had ensure to purchase a few gallons of gas just in case.
