Paul - Retired from full time 15 yr instructor 1 year ago and a Sun 'n Fun announcer, which is the 2nd largest airshow in the world. Robert - Born as Robert Jedrzejczak, in Milwaukee Wisconsin, lived in the surrounding states until my parents split up when I was 8. At 10, I moved to California to live with my dad, where I learned to surf in Santa Maria California. I used to jump off the dunes near Pismo beach and didn't even know what parkour was. White water rafting and cliff jumping soon followed. Throughout my adventures I ended up in Florida where I was only able to surf during hurricanes because the gulf side has little waves. I made primetime news twice on SNN for surfing Hurricane Charlie and then Katrina. But I wanted more! So I started skydiving in Homestead FL at Skydive Miami. While attending the school, I kept seeing people flying paragliders near the dropzone. They were flying every day and in skydiving, if the plane ain't full of jumpers, it ain't flying. Then, one day on my way to work I saw a guy selling 2 paragliders on the side of the road. I introduced myself and he introduced me to Paul Czarnecki at PlanetPpg. I started flying paragliders in 2010 and haven't been back to my other adventures. I love flying! I have participated in Sun N Fun airshow! I have shared my love of the sport with others to carry on. I will live every day till the day I die!

Most storms have personalities. Some are very big in size, like Andrew in 1992. It was a huge storm and a strong one with Category 5 winds. It had gusts of up to 175 miles an hour and it devastated south Florida. Other storms like Hurricane Charlie in 2004 were not as big or strong but caused a lot of damage. Three weeks after Hurricane Ian, there is still a lot of debris lining the streets. It was reported on CNN that Hurricane Ian was a one in one-thousand-year event for the hardest hit parts of Florida. It was a wind and a tremendous rain making event. The flooding was historic. Three weeks later, as you ride around some neighborhoods, you can easily see everything that was in the house. It is exposed, out on the street or curb. Furniture, mattresses, sheetrock, bedding, televisions and bag after bag of personal items. Exposed. For everyone to see what was once hidden inside. In John 8, a woman was exposed, brought out into the open. Jesus has an answer for both exposed situations, that of your stuff on the street and the woman exposed. That is to restore.

TwoSistas and it's FantabulousFriday, September 30, 2022, and it's National Podcast Day!!! Updates on Hurricane Ian and its' aftermath as the rescue and clean up efforts continue. We always try to look for the blessings in the midst of the storm and we know personally how hard that is. Janis (having lived in Florida for 7 years) went through several hurricanes including Hurricane Charlie which Hurricane Ian somewhat followed it's path. By now, we all know that “Ian” was approximately 3 times the size of “Charlie”. Think about this for a moment: the State of Florida is 500 miles long and 160 miles wide - “Ian” was 500 miles wide (not sure how long) and basically every 67 counties in Florida were affected. As the efforts continue to get back to normal life, remember your family and friends to whom suffered great losses, specifically on the West coast of Florida. Please continue to heed the updates from your local and state officials. We saw the worst of storms with “Ian” yet we continue to see the best in humanity! Please stay safe! We hope you have an amazing FantabulousFriday! Let us know how you are doing with the aftermath of Ian - how has this affected you and your family? We would love to hear from you - Share it with us!

But you know... Mr. Gilbert? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Gilbert#Jamaica Hurricane Gilbert produced a 19 ft (5.8 m) storm surge and brought up to 823 millimetres (32.4 in) of rain in the mountainous areas of Jamaica,[24] causing inland flash flooding. 49 people died.[19] Prime Minister Edward Seaga stated that the hardest hit areas near where Gilbert made landfall looked "like Hiroshima after the atom bomb."[25] The storm left $700 million (1988 USD) in damage from destroyed crops, buildings, houses, roads, and small aircraft.[26] Two people eventually had to be rescued because of mudslides triggered by Gilbert and were sent to the hospital. The two people were reported to be fine. No planes were going in and out of Kingston, and telephone lines were jammed from Jamaica to Florida.[8] As Gilbert lashed Kingston, its winds knocked down power lines, uprooted trees, and flattened fences. On the north coast, 20 feet (6.1 m) waves hit , a popular tourist resort where hotels were evacuated. Kingston's airport reported severe damage to its aircraft, and all Jamaica-bound flights were cancelled at Miami International Airport.[8] Unofficial estimates state that at least 30 people were killed around the island. Estimated property damage reached more than $200 million. More than 100,000 houses were destroyed or damaged and the country's banana crop was largely destroyed. Hundreds of miles of roads and highways were also heavily damaged.[27] Reconnaissance flights over remote parts of Jamaica reported that eighty percent of the homes on the island had lost their roofs. The poultry industry was also wiped out; the damage from agricultural loss reached $500 million (1988 USD). Hurricane Gilbert was the most destructive storm in the history of Jamaica and the most severe storm since Hurricane Charlie in 1951.[28] --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thereallewdresky/message

Everyone has a story, it's just that some people's stories are more interesting. That is the case with Kevin Doyle, founder and owner of The Celtic Ray Public House in Punta Gorda, Florida.  We've been talking about Kevin's unique story from his birth in Dublin, Ireland, rearing in Manchester, England and immigration to Florida in the early 1980's. We've talked about his family, his career path and the founding of the Pub, one of the oldest Irish pubs in Florida.  In this episode, we talk about surviving 2004's Hurricane Charlie, the potential demolition of the building (while staff were in it) and when he took on an investor and they eventually locked him out and tried to take over his pub. Enjoy!

Our lives at a crossroad, and even our world at a crossroad. This weekend Bob starts the program with an update on some of the things happening in his life in both work and ministry. He shares his thoughts on being at a "threshold of change" in many areas, but he also looks at the major cultural changes that are occurring at an increasingly rapid rate in our world today. So much that is being "normalized" is really nothing more than institutionalized insanity. On the final part of this weekend's program Bob shares a message he gave almost 15 years ago, when he was the pastor of a church in Sarasota, FL. This message was given shortly after Hurricane Charlie had hit near where Bob was living at the time. It is an encouragement as we face the storms in our lives. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/your-weekend-show/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/your-weekend-show/support

Most people would run, sprint, fly away from danger. Most people look for their safety in numbers. Most people look at the gravity of what mother nature can do to entire towns, buildings, and peoples’ homes. Most people would run from a hurricane. And yet, most people have also never heard of the Hurricane Hunters.In 1951, the deadliest tropical cyclone of that years’ Atlantic hurricane season, was barreling across the sea and heading right for Corpus Christi, Texas. Or at least that’s what everyone thought. Hurricane Charlie started from a tropical wave east of the Lesser Antilles. Had it hit Corpus Christi, Tx it most likely would have made the history books, and it would have been a topic of conversation that we still talk about today, because it surely would have destroyed a good majority of the lives that the people of Corpus Christi, Port Arthur, North Padre Island had at that time. Instead, the hurricane struck Jamaica with winds of 135 miles an hour, before then hurtling into the Mexican coast and the Yucatan Peninsula. Hurricane Charlie was responsible for 250 deaths. It is known as the deadliest natural disaster of the 20th century for Jamaica and has numbers ranging around $50,000,000 in damages and 152 dead. This hurricane was huge. However, back in 1951, we didn’t have the same technology we do today, and we would have never known some of the things we know now had it not been for the Air Force Reserve’s 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron, better known today as the Hurricane Hunters.

Many people old enough to remember 1986 in Ireland will tell you it was a pretty grim time and place. The economy was in the doldrums and unemployment was high. A referendum to permit divorce was voted down as Hurricane Charlie hit. In January, Phil Lynott died. The state papers from I986, released after the mandatory 30 year waiting period, reveal a country trying to deal with problems at home and in Northern Ireland, and to come to terms with a growing demand for equality and social change. Elaine Edwards and Stephen Collins were among the reporters allowed a first look at the annually-released cache of yellowing documents that make up the state papers. They talked to us about the stories they found, major, minor and quirky.

This is a great topic that I think few of us think about, but are we taking the time to not only tell our kids about what we do, but SHOW them. Listen in on how Mary Shannon Smith not only survives Hurricane Charlie by focusing on investors to rehab the devastated city but teaches her 14 Year old daughter… yes I said 14 years old … how to buy her very own first rental. There is a great saying I heard years ago, “it’s not the commissions that make you rich, it’s what you DO with the commissions that will make you rich”! What are you doing with your commissions? Are you not only investing in real estate yourself, but are you TEACHING your kids? Not only is Shannon an inspiration as a parent but she created one of the largest Real Estate Facebook Groups for real estate agents in less than 3 months. This podcast is worth the time to listen to. I would love to hear your thoughts and comments over on our blog at  www.RealEstateRealWorld.com
