TS Edouard wasn't as bad as it could have been. We were out at the property Sunday evening meeting with the low voltage guy when a big bad storm rolled through. It was over quick but twice as powerful as Edouard was this morning.
The storm Sunday evening blew over all the port-o-potties (except ours!) while we were out at the property. It truly was a scary thing being in that house. (That house is full of loose nails all over the floor. There are also lots of loose boards with nails sticking out. I was sure the wind, being as powerful as it was, that we were going to have a few of those take off!)
We did lose quite a bit of felt paper from Sunday's storm. Chad (our framer) went out Monday morning to secure everything in preparation for Edouard, (including replacing the felt, and reinforcing the old felt with more nails. He even boarded up two of the window holes where the windows haven't been installed. He also placed a board across the front doors so that they wouldn't be blown in.
We went out there today to see how the house did. It looks pretty good according to Johnathan. (I stayed in the car with the girls.)
I saw a couple of places where the felt paper had been ripped off again. Other than that...everything seems fine.
Johnathan said my "arches" in the kitchen and living room are complete. I am excited about getting out there and seeing them!
