Andrew did some flooding around there, but I don't know if the winds get that far inland to do a lot of damage. The County makes all new builds meet the Florida hurricane standards, so maybe they do. There are flood-level marks on some of the trees that are pretty high. Yep, around 80 miles or so.

Garlits place is in Ocala. I've been there a few times. There is some real cool stuff there. It's just a block or so off I75.

No berm yet, but I have a pretty good sized pile of dirt that I've shot into. After everything is inspected, I'm going to take some of the dirt from the stupid-ass " Engineered Storm water retention berm" and use that.

We got the interior ceilings, walls, all the backing, trays, and plumbing done in two weeks. That was just my brother Doug and I doing everything. When I got down there and saw the stacks and stacks of lumber and all the plumbing supplies, I thought "no way in hell are we going to get this done in two weeks". Surprised myself, being as we are both getting up there in years.
