[JOEY’S ALL VOL !!!]

Had one of my Raliegh based crews working here in Nashville this week. Told them yesterday to just keep their rooms for the weekend, going to have them over to the house for a big feed tomorrow weather depending.

That’s a solid from ya!

If it weren't for them I'd have to actually do work. Gotta keep them happy.

Well it’s getting downright crazy here now. Neighbor just lost an oak and along with it part of her house, she’s okay though, another neighbor above just had one come down too, spared his garage and workshop but took out his fence. Power lines down all over the valley. I’m gonna head down to the lake house and check on things there.

2 Monster white oaks in the back yard uprooted and down, took the power, phone and cable lines down with it. AEP said for me to expect to be without power for at least 2 and maybe several days. I can hear trees coming down all through the valley.

Ouch. Keep your powder dry.

Geez ... wind is unreal, could hardly keep my truck in the road. Lake house is fine and has power, the valley house looks like a war zone.

Wow. Roots just aren't used to the combined levels of rain and wind, I guess.

Strongest wind gusts to come through here that I can remember.

Does that mean you can start living the life of ease as a kept man?

the first requirement to be a trophy husband is to be a trophy.

 

[JOEY’S ALL VOL !!!]

And just like that ... all is calm and the Sun is out.

 

[Grand Vol]

Does that mean you can start living the life of ease as a kept man?

No, just means her diagnosis of me is now professional.

No, just means her diagnosis of me is now professional.

Oh boy that's going to be fun for you. Can she prescribe drugs?

 

[UT_Dutchman]

Yes.

You all stay safe, just had a 100+ foot oak fall on my boat. Still crazy wind here in north Knoxville.

Anyone know if homeowners covers that ? Just took the insurance off 2 weeks ago.

Damn, your boat? That sucks!

Homeowners should cover it.

Sadly no.

More likely she'd prescribe them for herself after dealing with me.

Yes sir, 1 got the car in May and now the boat, wtf.

Sorry about the car but damn the boat is a terrible loss.
