Today is an improvement already -- it's scattered sunshine, the wind has calmed down to ~25mph and the barometer is moving up

Pulled the busted branches off the dog kennel and deck. Still have to go restack all the *stuff* stacked behind the shop and pump house that blew over. This is only the second winter out of eight that has blown that *stuff* away.

Eric you're still on the road! I hope you get good per diem for all that travelling...

Windy as heck in Sequim!...Started a new job as a plumber today, went to the job site, and the 'Porta Potty' had been blown on its side. Luckily, I installed a couple of toilets in the house.

Ya know, Mike, I ought to have you come down and install a new street flange here. Whoever redid the floor just went on top of the existing floor, the flange is too low to seal even with double gaskets.

Sounds like the pipes need to be raised. Just redid a drain in a new home today...The rough in plumbers left it about 3/4" too short. So, it was under the house, cut the abs, and add a new piece. Talk about 'measure twice, cut once'...That missing 3/4" cost about $50. Unfortunately, the rough in plumbers worked for us and it was a bid job.

This is a new house and you're a general contractor? A plumber? And a Stihl mechanic at a shop? And becoming a posting guru? And forgot where the property is you own around the Sound?

You're getting a lot of titles!
