Not a hurricane photo, but still weird! These look like bugs, but they are actually molted shells left behind after the creatures shred their skin.

Hurricane preperation. Spare anchor rigged and ready to go on the foredeck. Note the headsail has been removed from the forstay.

Anchorred vessels to the east of us, including a 68ft ketch. The wind would initially come from this direction, so we worried about their proximity.

Vessels to the west of us.

The rain begins. This is just the beginning. We could not have a camera in the cockpit during the height of the storm.

Kelsey foudn an outlet for her creativity during the storm and made "hurricane cards", which she sold them after the event.

Puddles left over after all the rain. The interor of the country had bad flooding and deadly landslides.

Building castles made of sand a few days after the storm.

The skies are blue again!
