With Ike heading into the Gulf, I can't believe how the hurricanes are
coming back to back this year. Is it me or is this a particularly bad
Sept.?

It's not as bad as 4 years ago when Florida got whacked 4 times in 6
weeks or some such.




We bought a house and 5 acres in Jupiter back in 2001. Later, we bought
another house and similar acreage in the same, gated community. Paid cash
for both.

The first house was purchased for 465K and sold for 1 mm, three years
later.

Those days are over for the time being.

Yup. Our house was the last that sold in the area for a long, long time.
That was in 2005, about a month after Wilma.

However, we recently had some friends visiting who live in the same gated
community. Builders are still putting up new, large houses.
