ivan aftermath....

[JIMINATOR]

well, there were some deaths in florida. we mostly got the tropical storm end of things in georgia. we had a 50' tree come down in the woods behind our house. it took down everything in it's path, but luckily only grazed our deck for no real damage. still that is going to be some fun cleanup with the chainsaw.... if anyone wants to visit, now is the time.... :D

[Slice]

Glad to hear you are ok. That 50' tree was a present from me to keep you busy this weekend. :P I will be thinking of you while I float in my pool.

[JIMINATOR]

eh, the season isn't over yet.... :thumbs:

anyway it's good exercise...

but yeah, i can understand that in your business,
each hurricane probably costs you a full week or two of business...

you may have to settle for the smaller big screen hdtv.... :D

Yes, it has cost me over the $20,000 mark already but I will take that loss any day over a direct hit. After Georges in '98 my properties were closed for 4 months for repairs. Imagine how much that cost. In any event money is money what's more important is that our families are safe with none to minimal damage to our properties. Good luck to everyone in the hurricane zone for the rest of this crappy season.

Watch out for the Brown Shark.

I have some friends that live about 40 miles NE of Atlanta and they're porch doors were blown clean off by the storm!

[JIMINATOR]

view of the tree. you can't really tell, but it took down a bunch of trees. the empty section used to be all trees....

[detonator]

I had some trees come down too at my home up in Alpharetta GA, My property was under 6" of water at one point.

My neighbor had a tree come right down on his roof and one on his car.

Nothing that money wont fix, just wish I had some!

[Die Hard]

Wow thats a big tree to be blown down [gulp]

[Bingo]

I had some trees come down too at my home up in Alpharetta GA, ...

Hey, I lived in Alpharetta for years! Look forward to moving back as well.

Moved a couple years ago down here to Fla. I off Mansell for quite a while.

Love that town!

Bingo

[detonator]

I dont think you'd recognize Mansell road anymore, boy has it changed in 5 years. I am at Nebit Ferry rd and Holcomb Bridge.

Oh and Jim, do you want to borrow my chainsaw?

[ME BIGGD01]

i'm glad to know you guys are safe. here in ny, we had alot of rain and it has gotten a bit nippy with wind gusts aroun 20-30 mph. some damage but nothing that compares to the south east.

anyone see that 18 wheeler on tha bridge? no, i mean have you seen it because only a peice of the tail was left on the bridge. what encouraged that person to try to go over during that storm is beyond questioning. i think he is missing also.

[ThePIT]

Hope you're all ok across the pond... While you're safe, that's the main thing ! :wave:
