  3. I love the energy πŸ”₯πŸ”₯we will rebuild #floridaisstronge

  4. Fraud case.nstions spenders traveling around world 🌍 wide stole everything nzwide business money product appliances furniture s shops truckloads stuff.all thieves

  5. Nzwide empty nine hundred fifty thousand people left nz .all going overseas, spenders traveling around the world 🌍 lssures.crisis.systems.thieves.chaos.

  6. Despite the economic downturn,I'm so happy☺️. I have been earning $ 60,200 returns from my $7,000 investment every 13days

  7. I'd like to buy that storm a drink.

  8. This is what flood and storm insurance is all about.

  9. And the State of Florida, whose ruling politicians hate anyone who is not Republican , Maga, Alt Right and or their brand of Christian, cares little for the people of color, the poor, the migrants. These politicians will take everything they can get from the democratic federal government, but little of it will trickle down to the people who had little to start with and now lost everything.
    Why the heck doesn't that ever make the news ?

  10. Notice no clowns driving in the snow

  11. That's why people buy real estate in California and why that is cheaper 10x in Florida.

  12. And yet we keep being invaded by illegal Central Americans & Cubans

  13. Hello Good afternoon .πŸ˜»πŸ’•

  14. Why is it that when people are kind to one another so many want to thank their version of God? Why can't we just thank the people? Believe it or not theists, not all of us believe in your God or any version of God and some of us are just good people because we want to change the world around us for everyone, not just your spiritual beliefs.

    That said, good for the people who are helping out! It shows that even with Florida being highly prejudiced in parts and even more egotistic in others, some people were raised correctly and never stopped putting others before themselves! Much respect from a former Floridian!

  15. Well No duh. The foolish man, builds his house upon the sand

  16. Florida too hot 24/7 except winter also. Too many canes

  17. santa took this year off i guess

  18. "Beautiful beach" πŸ˜β›±οΈ
    —– "where are hot girls" πŸ‘™

  19. Be like the state of Maryland! Maryland has Assateague Island ! No development is permitted on our Barrier Island! It was formed in 1938 by a Hurricane! Only camping is permitted on Assateague Island! We have a state Seashore and national park! Assateague Island is also the home of the famous Chincoteague wild ponies! πŸ₯°πŸ€—πŸŽπŸŽπŸŽβš“β›΅πŸŒ…πŸŒŠπŸŒŠπŸŒ…πŸ¬πŸ¬βš“

  20. The people of Florida are good people it is sad to see how they are being scammed by the insurance companies and the license contractors there since they have no competition they are taking advantage of people and triple charging the price of repairs while the Republican party gets kicked backs from the insurance companies

  21. Wow, what a nice lady. May God bless her with health so that she can keep helping her neighbors and fellow islanders

  22. I love the blatant saccharine feel-good vibe injected in this, lol
