    I am out here in Utah in the middle of a 2000 year drought hoping for all the best for you and yours. Please stay safe! We will be praying for you.

  2. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jerry Newberry says:

    If you have windstorm Ins. Check with the company after this blow. Think you'll find you have to board up with 5/8" pw or better or they won't honor the ins. You can buy plywood at your convenience for next time so you don't have to buy it in panic mode. I went thru Harvey here without plywood on the windows
    Luckily, only one window was penetrated. Didn't make a difference tho, neighbors house came apart, smashed gaping holes in my roof. Water damage everywhere. Also, HF has tarps. Glam onto some at your convenience for next time for use on your roof after. Be careful, watch for more snakes than normal, and have a great day!

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars emsjb05 says:

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Piggie's Shade Tree Mechanics says:

    Ray, you got this… you've worked too hard for everything you got to get beat by this! Praying for you…

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars YoderTexas says:

    I just heard this from a very reliable source. Texas mosquitos have marching orders to join forces with Louisiana counterparts and converge on the Central Florida area. You will recognize the Texas blood suckers because they closely resemble the 4 inch LA variety, only about 5% smaller. Both units have had intense training and real world experience during Hurricanes Harvey and Katrina. Expect heavy casualties.

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars PeaceMarauder says:

    Ever think about investing in a can of Off? 😛 Of course, your winds will come from the east at first and heaviest. I have an 1998 DR. Dang, spanish moss on pines?

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dillon Rice says:

    Be safe Ray. You work so hard.

  35. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Stephen B says:

    Hopefully all this effort won't be needed when the hurricane hits. Better to be ready and not need to be. I heard it will be cat 1 by the time it hits Florida. Hope it dies out.

  36. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars RaithUK says:

    You'll have to show us the match stick places after this is over!

  49. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Alan Hall says:

    Ray, Charlie…Charlie, Ray…You two CAN get along. Ray, to avoid Charlie showing up unexpected, eat a few tablespoons of mustard today, and tomorrow, and then have a banana, or two today, and tomorrow. Charlie really hates mustard and really hates bananas. He will not come around if you follow these instructions today and anytime Charlie shows up. Later!!

  56. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Edward Mullendore says:

    That is the cleanest trailer I've ever seen in my life

  57. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Throbbin Hood says:

    Stay safe and that you and your family come through unharmed and can laugh about it, in stories around the fire

  58. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars rorschach602 says:

    I think I'll stay here in NH. No hurricanes, in fact, no natural disasters per se. Even the worst blizzards are put on the backup heat and board game. The snow will stop.

    Also, no meaningful mosquitos if you spray (which I do) even though I have a literal wetland 20' behind my house.

    Good luck Ray…. better you than me.

  59. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars HUBBABUBBA DOOPYDOOP says:

    I think I know why, but could you please elaborate-
    why are you bringing all your tools & stuff home? Is there looting? Probably,
    knowing the scumbag Human Race, and how lovely and openly criminal some are- I'd bring my stuff home, too.

  60. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars John Simmons says:

    Good luck ray ! Hope everything goes well 👍

  63. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Greg Diamond says:

    You do sound sleep deprived Ray. You'd better get some sleep. I’m surprised the shop is still open. Please be careful. Last hurricane through here picked up the back of my 68 Impala and slammed it down. You probably know this but keep cell phones as much as possible…

  64. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Friendly Robot says:

    Here's hoping the extent of your damage is the wind blowing that old door a few dozen miles away!

  65. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Lina Scott says:

    Be safe. 😳

  66. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars myk55501 says:

  67. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Justin Davidson says:
