Hi there, if any of you folks live on the East coast and have no where to go, you're welcome to stay here. You might have to fight my dog for the "best pile of sawdust," but you're all welcome here. ... I'm just kidding.... I always take the best pile of sawdust.
I'm actually being serious .... anyone is welcome to stay at my house. I'll kick Bean (my dog) out. And if you are a party more then one, I'll sleep in the shop.... wouldn't be the first time. I just want to make sure that all you folks on the east coast have somewhere to go. I'm truly happy to have you.... your stuff, animals...ect. (although, I once had a Lama stay here that was particularly annoying)
PLEASE let me know if you folks need anything, I'm in Nelson County, VA, my phone number is 434-989-5510. If you don't have anywhere to go and you call me.... leave a message.... I'm always in my shop and I don't hear anything!
I hope this storm will "blow over" and not be a big deal. But, if it is, you are all welcome at my house. (Oh, if you're an axe murderer choose another house.... I've got more drama than I can handle!).
cheers, bird

We're set for Hurricane Irene I think. We live in the piedmont overlooking Chesapeake Bay and Delaware River. We located the house in 1978 on a hilltop overlooking the White Clay Creek's local floodplain. In one flood some years ago, the current moved so fast across the road, it swept a neighbor in her car into the woods. She had to be rescued by the local volunteer fire department's crew in an aluminum outboard skiff.
As a local precaution, I spent two hours this morning before the rain arrived, cleaning leaves off gutter screens , multiple roof valleys, and the uphill side of the skylights. As far as looking out for each other during and after Hurricane Irene, we made commitments to help each other with downed trees at our weekly get together in the Man Cave yesterday. Most of us have chain saws, and I have chain hoists, peavey hook, and lots of chain. We're set to move anything that falls.

Bird that is an incredibly generous offer.

I bet anyone that takes Jenny up on that offer will have plenty of stories to tell!
Imagine spending time with our "Resident Rambler"!

Yeah, somehow, I didn't think you'd have a problem being prepared to take down/remove trees from ridiculous situations.... don't know why.... just figured you were that type of person.
cheers, bird
