Heh.
At the first glance, I thought that hurricane looked like Scandinavia! :-P

Do you think your barn will hold this year, T_bone? :lol:

Lol! it's long gone, I replaced it with 2 $499.00 aluminum carports, and a good fence around the back. I miss having the barn though, nothing beats one for storing all your crap!  :-P

I'll be in Virginia about the time the storm hits though, my wife got suckered into a club membership at "The Club at Lake Gaston Resort" so I'll be moving the camper and the golf cart up there (everyone there drives golf carts around *everywhere*, to restaurants, the stores, the bars, etc.) It doesn't seem like a bad deal, but these "clubs" sound a lot like those timeshares. $15K gets you a permanent camp lot and part overship of the resort. You never know though, maybe the storm will follow us up.  :-P

Wow, must be nice being able to store things outside. There is so much humidity, rain and heat down here if i leave anything outside, even in the shed, it rusts almost immediately if it's metal, and everything else just molds. Electronics? Forget about it:-/

Nothing makes you appreciate where you live more than the stories of other people. I live in a pleasant green valley. The soil is mostly clay, but fertile and rich. The summers are warm, the winters are mild. We just don't get floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, whiteouts, droughts, volcanoes, earthquakes, blizzards, huge storms, fog, or malaria outbreaks. We all have central heating but rarely need it. Air conditioning is extremely uncommon.

I suppose this is because my ancestors were sensible enough to build their houses in a place that wasn't a swamp, hurricane alley or tectonic plate fault. :)

But then again...you have no idea how boring it can be. We had some thunder last night and it was like Christmas. :-D
