keep in mind this is one of 4 sides...we slung a lot of lumber today...this is a small ant nest we uncovered, geez they looked like a box of rice puffs was slung all over...tomorrow anything I wanna keep in my yard will be secured...getting slammed by the storm seems pretty imminent...

Wife grew up in Galveston , .. her dad had the hurricane shutters he would bring out and it was a lot of work for the whole family..

@boo -- You've done your best, bro.

Do you have any treats stashed for Dutch and Ivan? They are gonna be scared.

And I am glad you did not attempt putting up that blue ton of wood by yourself... that'd be a killer, no error.

LATE ADD: Is that gargoyle (?) over the rear door on tight enough? Should you take it down?

 

[boo]

I forgot all about it walt thanks...it comes down today...

 

[giggy]

Morning Walt, brother boo and the rest. Walt and brother boo keep you heads down, I hope yall don't get to much water. I have rode a few hurricanes out, they ain't no fun. As for the rest of yall it's time you get your lazy moving.

Already an "OH Shit" day for the ants..........................

Good luck to everyone in the path! Sending good thoughts and prayers.......................

Good job @boo! A little preplanning and preparation trumps luck, good thoughts, and prayers virtually every time.

My daughter-in-law is from New Oileans and loves to cook .. she made my wife this super rich cake that we took to Texas Roadhouse where my wife wanted to eat at for her birthday and ate only a third of it and then shared it with all of the neighboring tables ..


Triple layer (2 vanilla and 1 strawberry) with homemade butter cream and fresh strawberries in the middle, topped with Chocolate covered Strawberries.

Good luck with the storm boo. you are in my thoughts every time I see that storm coming. We use to have to prepare every year for the storms just east of you on the coast when I lived there. I too always refused to evacuate. My hubby always tried to talk me into it saying it wasn’t worth it to stick around. We had no kids living with us just the cats and dogs and I like you thought it would be better for us to stick around our old house in case we could save anything. I did have a dream tho of being that woman clinging to the top of a windy tree in the rain holding my cat .
I will keep you and those in the path in my thoughts and prayers. Good luck with the pups too. Not easy getting dogs to p&P in the flood and keeping them calm and burning that puppy energy in the house will be a real task. Take care friend

Boo,,keep an eye out for Hippie. With your windows covered it's going to be dark. Easy to steal your toothbrush.

 

[RosterMan]

Boo Hope you have those chicken dinners stored up in your freezer and you and the Kids are hunkered down and remain SAFE.
Who would I have to make Fun of if you get trashed.
But seriously Make it back Safe OK
Love Ya

Worst case scenario is if Hippie sneaks in and uses it leaving it stained brown

I would be worried about more than that.

They are at the itchy stage, but I've got my sites set on a certain smart asses toothbrush in Texass..........

I think I'm going through my second childhood. In the morning, if I have a successful bowel movement, I clap my hands, yell YAY!, and tell myself I'm a good boy.

 

[DavidfromMichigan]

Hope everyone stays safe and smart. A lot of people don't like leaving, or they leave too late. I just hope for the best. Seems like a big one.

 

[DavidfromMichigan]

Lol.. bullet holes. Bro man is prepared. Your neighbors either love you, or fear you. No in between.

I praise Ivan for doing the same...
