Tornados are known for doing millions of dollars of improvements in West Virginia. Maybe Irene can help you out.

Ok I'm editing this. that statement was poked in fun before Irene. Now Irene appears to actually be taking me up on this. I hope you fair well. Good luck. Eb.

Well?? How are you? Did you make it thru the storm?

Man you got it easy. Just wait until Hurricane Irene passes and send your insurance company a picture of your back yard. They'll cut you a check to get the "disaster" fixed up in no time!

That was not nice. My back yard is in a constant state of very carefully arranged disarray.

That's my excuse & I'm sticking to it.

Didn't turn on the 'Puter once over the weekend.

Got in a full day on Thursday & half a day on both Friday & Saturday before getting chased in by storms. Saturday I had just taken down a 30' ladder from cutting branches over the deck & pool (storm prevention & ... well, they were just in the way) when the first fringe effects from Irene arrived. So just packed in the tools & made a run to the dump. Sunday was just too windy (without rain for a change of pace) to get much done other than cleaning up. But I did take the opportunity to trim out the sliding glass door between the dining room & the sun room.

Current state of affairs: Left side of deck now goes all the way to the retaining wall; lattice 7/10 complete; more framing installed for next section of deck; another load of lumber stacked up ready for next step(s); about 300 lbs of leaves & deadfall cleaned from pool (still need to vacuum). I'll get more pix this weekend.
