    Your erosion control measures have paid off to a great extent. Without them, you would probably be in the same situation as your neighbors. I'm sure you are already thinking about how to shore up your property even more once the storms have passed. Mother nature will constantly give you challenges but she is mess 'in with a Texan and I know you will put up a battle.

    When I compare the condition of the front area and beach to some of the early vids I've watched from your build and protection steps, you've come miles forward (okay, many meters ahead, literally)... It's good too that you were still there to take the steps on the spot to further protect what's being affected... Between such storms, I think if you continue to build more break areas, you'll have even less damage... The other benefits are more beach, more photo ops for guests, more enjoyment for your family, good for the neighbor's beaches, and easier launches for the boats... How is the pond/river holding up? That should be getting full with the rain... Last thought... Rice is life... Seeing everyone load up on rice for lunch break brought that thought on... The other thought was feeding an Army! That squad you've got moves on their stomachs, lol! Gotta feed 'em! Here, there is no weather drama, just sunny and hot for another 2 months or so... A little bad weather would be a break from that... Maybe some folks could do a little kayaking through the streets again, lol... Anyway... Back to work here... My team is waiting... Extremely busy at the moment...A good thing... TC... 🙏🙏🙏 👍😎👍

      @TexasFilipino All good, thanks! The build in Tarlac has commenced, and due to some mods, it is likely December for the completion/move-in date. That's going to be the daughter's place, but it will serve as the base to operate from while the bigger build gets set/underway... Lots to do over the coming months: SRRV, LLC set up, secure the property, architect, engineer, and start building, etc. The timeline is solidifying... I have stops scheduled prior to arrival there in Hungary, USA, Germany, and again USA... So, the initial arrival in The Philippines is around the first part of February next year... It'll be a whirlwind of stuff to get done at first, but the first chance we get, we'll schedule a trip down your way... Lots of things I look forward to checking out and folks to meet in your area... This is like planning a major movement of troops and gear to a forward operating base, lol... Kinda like this stuff... Takes me back to some of my Army operation escapades/adventures... I like doing things, building things, and creating opportunities for others... This whole operation is going to do that in spades... If we can expand operations, as I envision, we'll be able to create 50 or more good paying jobs for Filipina and Filipino folk... Did a lot of nation-building in the service...Not my first rodeo... Every dollar we can pay folks will, in turn, create three more in commerce activity for the communities... Win, win, win... I like winning! TC and "hi" to Mel... She's a real warrior! 🙏🙏🙏 👍😎👍

    I’m on the same island and we don’t have any flooding this time. I believe James that you said you can see the sunrise and sunset on the water. So you must be facing south while looking at the beach. 4’ of sand left this beach but I made my fence a seawall. Good luck.

      I do not believe in global warming caused by man. The science is there that this planet warms up and cools down for millions of years or more. We think our lifetime is so significant but the fact is it's just a grain of sand. Cycles that happen regardless if a human was even on this planet.

I am ok if you believe your way. We both might be wrong and fools. We have all the history of floods and high waters for a long time on this planet and also the evidence of low waters to where land masses where connected that are now separated.
