Context: We had to evacuate our home due to a hurricane. We knew it might happen so we got organized and packed what we would need and put it all in the car.
Speaker 1: We had to get out of the house because of Hurricane Matthew. It was a scary experience, but luckily we'd already packed what we needed into the car, so could just leave.
Speaker 2: I had Hurricane Matthew come through where I live too! NE FL, I know how you feel, only I couldn't get gas for my car because there was no gas anywhere!
Speaker 1: Oh, you poor thing! Thankfully, we'd gassed up and were good to go. The house survived too. Were you ok?
Speaker 2: Yeah you thought ahead, me not so much. Our house was fine but a HUGE mess to clean up in the yard and no power for 2 days. I hope your house was ok too!
Speaker 1: Ugh. We had to take the walls back to the studs, it was so bad inside. But thankfully we have wonderful friends, who accommodated us and helped with the clean-up!
