As Hurricane Ian makes landfall on the SC coast, significant storm surge has inundated the entirety of Pawleys Island. The highest elevation roadway on the north side, Atlantic Ave, is currently under at least 2' of water. Debris, such as power poles and tree limbs have been floating by. Multiple vehicles have sought higher ground at an elevated driveway as dangerous storm surge continues to rise.

    STORM SURGE - please let those two words sink in (no pun intended) So many people thought of only the wind. Water is unbeatable. Please, folks, no more relaxed attitudes to weather warnings and evacuations! Heart breaking. This is why I chose to move to a high mountain valley in the southern interior of British Columbia, Canada . No tornadoes, no hurricanes, no earthquakes, no volcanoes - it’s the most benign climate/region I could find, and still remain within my country. Climate change is real - is it man made? Can’t we argue about that AFTER we have taken the steps to mitigate the results?Steps that are within our abilities?!?! My heart bleeds for all of you affected! Peace

    And there, where we saw the red pick-up, there is possibly a bull's hair floating around, washed inland, biting people's legs off. - Scary and gruesome, that thought!

    Stay safe, lived in Surfside & worked on a lot of houses in Pawley's Island & Garden City.

    Turn around, don't drown. NY license plates and all won't keep your car upright.

    Have we crossed the point of no return in terms of damaging the planet? There is no such point. We need to trust that our thought, which is our greatest quality, can change nature. We only need to understand the direction to which we should aim our thoughts. What should we think about? What condition or state should we aspire to and ask for? In order to save our planet, we should think about positive human connections. That is, how can we, in our connections, keep nature safe? How can we all together protect our world? If we truly wish to better our planet, then we should see people holding a concern for how to positively connect everywhere that we look. It has nothing to do with recycling or other activities that we commonly associate with as being sustainable. If we come closer to and consider each other, that we will reach an entirely organic, perfectly connected and round state, then the negative forces will disappear from the world. We need to understand that if we start thinking better about each other, then the planet will recover from all harm, because our thoughts are the strongest force in nature. Likewise, our negative thoughts about each other are entirely to blame for damaging the planet. That is why the more we recycle and invest in energies and activities that we commonly think of as being sustainable, the worse our planet becomes. Nothing will work to benefit us until we reach a state where our attitude changes toward each other for the better to protect and improve our planet..
