“I had always wanted an adventure, but I guess I should have been more specific about what I wanted.”
With these seemingly innocuous words, the tale of the Kelley family begins. Wanting to be beholden to no one's dreams but their own, they left behind their Utah home and set out for Puerto Rico. They acted with intention, redirecting their lives to match their true purpose. Their arrival in Puerto Rico coincided with Hurricane Irma, followed closely by Hurricane Maria. They found themselves huddled together in the dark, with their house centered in the eye of the storm. They watched as the island they loved was demolished by the force of the hurricane winds, and then left to languish without electricity, water, or any relief for weeks. This is a gripping memoir of wanderlust, discovery, catastrophe, family, and the power of love and laughter to make it through the storm.
