Just a quick update: we survived the night.
Irma did us a huge favor. She turned just a bit north and the eye was 100 miles away by the time she passed out end of the island. We had strong gusty tropical storm force - not hurricane - winds.
A little over a third of the island is without electricity, including us. But we still have water as of now which is more important.
Our dogs were understandably anxious - new surroundings, new sounds, a storm - but they are fine. We're heading out now to check on the house and they onto see the horses.
More later as we can.
Glad you are ok. Hope all is cleaned up and restored soonr rather than later!
