En espanol: el derecho (like the recent super windstorm across Iowa!)...then el izquierdo!

but in Spanish: the right then the left! Could you forward the address of your heir(s) so we know where to send our

dues?

Rest assured you
will be missed!: But if you can manage to bugout you're always welcome at Napa for a little hospitality... and a first-rate BBQ!!

"Napa" and "BBQ", two words I never thought I would hear put together.

Catfish · 08-22-20, 04:42 PM

I hope Aktung has stored a lot of steaks for the season.. won't need barbecue lighters i guess..

@Neal wish you all the best, sure looks impressive on the radar.

Reminds me of a dream I had some years back, I still remember it:

in the dream, the news announced a big hurricane enters the gulf. It is growing, becoming a cat 3, then cat 4... headed straight for my ranch. Then the news reports it has stopped forward progress, and still growing, now a cat 5... then it sits in the gulf, just sits there spinning, getting bigger and stronger, something no storm has ever done, growing stronger and stronger, stronger than any storm ever... and still getting stronger...400mph winds... omg, when it starts forward .... the devastation.... and I woke up.

Steaks, lamb chops, pork chops and my ready stock of burger patties all vacuumed packed in the garage freezer against quake/fire related cuisine-interruptus based on previous hard-learned experience. The lid of my Weber BBQ doubles as my Spartan shield with my righthand steely fork against starving intruders and damned mooching inlaws,

Spare-the-air is in effect; but the legal loophole allows if the BBQ is the only source of cookery...and with two power failures already-and an expectation of further PG&E failure...hey I'm off the hook with enforcement! The fire-smoke is completely down to the ground anyhow! so "air quality" is null and void.

Closer up

Hang in there Neal; I doubt any hurricane, or pair of them, could ever seriously "mess with Texas"...

Hold fast and ride it out; our good wishes are with you...

Just weld some serious 50 gallon drums to that storage container you converted to to dwelling all around the base;

so you'll float and have a a birdcage with love doves to release when u spot dry land...again! Don't use ravens; that was #1 to go and didn't return. Doves will!

^^ Those steel drums rust and spring a leak at the most undesired times, beware

Raven and dove, pah. The raven found a nice spot better than this ark and of course did not come back to bad food and smell. The dove was just to dumb

Look on the bright side...at least you don't have those squirrels in your back garden to worry about.

Either way...stay safe my friend.
