The Co-op: One good thing about getting beaten by a hurricane………

The mosquitos take it pretty hard, for @ 4-5 days…..those buddies need to reach before the legions return!  Pulled out the 1 T-shirt I own that is most recognized at this timeOops, that’s what I get for making a self……u can read it in a mirror….sideways!

Good thing I’m not working today!  Oh I’m going in….I have Eleganza to attend toYwah, check out that Honda crotch rocket Brian attempts to hang onto!  Not me!

I’m leaving the guys at home to take care of their places and family…..Jared, Phillip, Jason, Brian will probably drop by……like me this place is in our lives!  Its a difficult affliction!  The shop is jammed but I hope to maybe doing a few things to Mutcedes but mainly UPS shipments, mail and aFight Product distributer pick-up…..if any of that shows up…..somebody has to be there…..that would be me.

I’ve got the vulnerable original rolled glass windows on our house.  Probably won’t need it but 15 years ago I made these panels for Hurricane Charley……..not a hoarder……I still have them!

That small concrete block building to the right was built exclusively for the AC/ furnace to keep any noise out of the house extra service was brought from the pole of all that.  It was dropped off here in 1924 after being purchased from a decommissioned blimp base in Sanford.  Planted as a homestead, it had no power or water for 6 years.  The grove owners place, it was put on the surveyed high ground on the 1/2 mile square plot.  On 2 scores on block….. We should stay high and dry.

A raised seam metal roof and vinyl covered metal wiring I feel things should work ok.  The annnnntttiiiiiiicccccpppppatiiiiooon of this is probably more frustrating that being in this thing.  Palm trees are made to bend 90 degrees…..watch those videos from the Bahamas that BTW has been wiped of this planet…..really!  4 days of over 160 mph winds……property there may be available….bring everything!

I’ve had enough of 26 hours of constant news reports are sucking my will to live!  In headed to relief and the shop.  I’ll get back to you then…….

“I got up this morning and I got myself a beer (only 1), the futures uncertain and the end is always near…let ROLL….all night long”
