you ever need teflon tape and know you have many many rolls of it somewhere but can never find it and have to make a trip to the hardware store and you know you'll be back the next time you need it?

Yep, I have done that drill more than once.

only to realize the O ring is shot.

I have been reading a book this weekend about the Florida Keys Labor Day Hurricane of 1935.  Not a well known story about such a deadly storm and also the strongest storm ever recorded in the U.S.  185 mph winds and the exact number of deaths is not really known but it is recorded at near 500.

And we're all familiar with this one.  https://www.history.com/news/how-the-galveston-hurricane-of-1900-became-the-deadliest-u-s-natural-disaster

An interesting thing is the Galveston hurricane was 35 years earlier when news was very limited  but most people have heard of it yet the Labor Day storm is not widely known about.

October is the month when most snowbirds do their migration from the north. The third and forth week of October you will see the biggest influx. You will have to be on your guard all the time till the end of April when they return north for the summer.
