Some people say that living on the beach is a pleasure.
This is true, however only when you are visiting the beach. Anyone who owns a beach household knows that though the view and section may be welcoming the weather can be unpredictable and fierce. My family has experienced this first hand as we have last through at least three different hurricanes. The most recent one was the worst. To begin with the hurricane itself didn’t seem like it was going to hit us too bad, so my father prepared the beach household in a usual manner. He turned off all the power including the air conditioning and humidifier and then placed sandbags around the windows and doors to ensure no flooding would occur. It wasn’t until a few hours before the hurricane hit that we realized the hurricane had shifted and was headed right towards our beach house. My mother and father were quite upset because they upset that the weather would certainly take out the house. The hurricane swiftly passed and my father again ventured out to the beach household to check up on everything, however, before even reaching the beach household he had hit a hard situation. The entire streets had been shut down as numerous power lines and electric companies had been hit so there wasn’t a way to get past the fallen cables. My father swiftly called our neighbor to see if he could check on the house. It turns out we were blessed and when our neighbor turned on our power just to check and the air conditioning started up right away. He then told us how jealous he was because his household was without power and the thick humid air was causing his house to get certainly uncomfortable. My father told him he’s more than welcome to stay at the beach household and use our air conditioning and humidifier until his power came on.
