Wind and Water...What a mess!!

The strong winds a few weeks ago really caused a lot of damage to our screen room. The screens were all custom made, so replacing them is going to be a challenge. We have waited for weeks for the insurance adjuster to come and take pictures. Here are some pics of the damage.

and another

The wind was so strong that it picked up a really heavy swing that was on the back porch and threw it all the way across the pool and up against the screen room. The pool cover was pulled out of eight stakes and blown across the pool. We also had a concrete block and lots of other debris blown into the pool.

The wind also turned over Drew's boat and trailer. The only damage that we can see that happened to the boat was a broken propeller.

We also lost some trees that were knocked down. We really hated to loose these trees that we planted 20 years ago.

So much for the wind damage. Yesterday we decided to go over and stay at the lake for the first time this season. We got over there with lots of plans to do all of the chores necessary to open the house and as soon as Gene turned on the water, we had a flood in the kitchen. So we had to empty the cabinets and clean up the mess. It's a good thing that Gene is off next week...he now has a plumbing problem to fix.

Here is the new corner nook that Gene just installed. I really like it.

Oh well, just another problem..........
