Kinda proud of my little stick cottage. Held up pretty good to 132mph winds. It’s not much but it is paid for, still standing and about to get some new stuff! Very lucky and thankful it can be repaired. Part of my retirement plan was to have no mortgage or rent. Picture my neighbor sent me. Thinking my old cars are going to be scratched to hell from flying shingles and debris. Both had original paint.
Yesterdays storms:
At a distance , you can see the rain falling and it was then I knew rain was on the way. .. . . .
Then the clouds started to form:
No. That’s going to be almost impossible. Most people now are taking accommodations in New Orleans, which is further away than I am now. An open letter posted from our mayor was pleading with people to stay put at least another week before trying to get home. No running water with no estimated time to be restored. Weeks at a minimum. Electricity the same. No gas. It took my neighbor over an hour to get to her son’s home which is only 5 miles away. Streets blocked everywhere by downed trees and utility poles. It is just a huge widespread mess.
What are you replacing it with?Sad day just sold my 110 with 55 sump with custom stand. Good bye my love!
Nothing right now but frag tank down the road
Hoping no one loots my house and steals all my rum.You deserve one...or five...your choice
Should send your neighbor over to secure it and put in safe place...however, I'm slightly doubtful that rum will be high on the list of most lootersHoping no one loots my house and steals all my rum.
from pics looks like all windows and doors intact,is that a el camino or ranchiro?in the drive?Hoping no one loots my house and steals all my rum.
Yeah, as best I can tell, the windows seem intact, at least in the east side. Fingers crossed anyway. I didn’t board up my house, but did my mother’s place. She still had the plywood and Plyox clips from Rita.
from what iv'e learned about you so far ,the good stuff is most likely buried in yard with your goldjust hoping for a smile
I started to leave him a key. I have a freezer full of meat, fish and shrimp decomposing as we speak. I was going to throw all that out before we left, but I was overruled. I’m sorry if I already said some of this stuff earlier. I can’t remember what I have said between here, Facebook and our home forum. And there is that age thing...
