Yes, we are probably about one mile apart as the crow flies. I wasn’t home but did view a fairly strong cell moving west out of Wildwood yesterday towards The Villages. Haven’t checked with neighbors yet, but I did see water on top of our water meter box, so clearly we were hit with rain and wind! Hard to believe Larry lost his without a flag!

John, Yes we live fairly close. I wasn't home at the time.

Greg, Larry, 

I can't argue with you folks, the photos 

speak for themselves. I just don't 

understand why all the rest of them 

are staying up fine and many have 

done so for years. Did both of yours 

come down on the same date? Time? 

Do you folks live near each other? I 

don't recall anyone saying anything 

about any unusual weather in the area, 

yes we did have that thunderstorm a 

few days ago but that was nothing that 

we don't normally experience on a 

normal summer day. 

I just don't have an answer. 

73, 

John
