Things are wrapping up around this area.

This is Carol's house. She has hurricane shutters on the other side of the house. But she got this side of shutters last year. She has been meaning to ask me to put them up. But as Roy and I have the time and put her on the schedule. So we started up pretty early this morning and here we go. We have never put the hardware up before. But by looking at the one that are up already, we will be in good shape. As long as you hit some solid wood, Should be great. 

See I think it looks good, plus is it strong too. 

On her front door we need to mount them there too. 

This is Diane's house. We worked on her's yesterday. There was one clam shell that the bolts rusted up and we could not get them off. So I needed the sawzall to cut them off. All is well and she is tickled pink. 

Okay moving on to our next home. This is Margo's. She is up in the Boston area, (Cape Cod) So she called me a couple of times to make sure I got them up. 

We even cleaned up her patio and what ever else was laying around. She is set now. 

This is Grace's home, she is in Detroit until Oct. So Richie is her neighbor across the street. He asked Roy and I if we could put them up? No problem. she had all that was needed to get the up and ready. 

From here we went over to Janice's dad's home. He has clam shells awnings. These were very easy to get down and secure. Hey this is the place I will be saying during the storm. I will take some pictures of his home tomorrow. As we have food and water and gas stove and even a generator. Now not sure about the generator. It has not been running since 2004. I looked at it and the gas was drained out. Today I will buy five gallons of gas and see what happens. 

The sad part is, if I knew about the generator, I would have checked it out before today. Oh well God is running the show. Janice told me during Matthew he didn't loose his power. Pray we will not too. But if we do, we have a whole freezer full of food and we will be eating good. 

This is just one of the gas stations I drove by last night. 

Roy and I had to go to the bank and deposit the checks I got for some the work. Plus pay him what he is due. We both made $300. each in two and half days. Not bad. 

OH look that the duct tape they put on their windows. Not really going to help, that I know of. 

One of the neighbors in the park here. Had tape on his windows too. 

Prayerfully the storm will break up and we will be in good shape. 

I will try to keep you all posted on what is happening around here.
