Sandy - still Pre-Hurricane - but it's windy out there!

You can't see anything?  That's because it isn't THERE anymore!  I was at the computer and saw my greenhouse (plastic - easy to put together/easy to move) go sailing past my window - end over end..... - and dashed outside. 

Caught it before it went up and over the side fence and to the street!!  And took it apart!  I was lucky - only a dab of cool and rainy breeze while the trees sounded like a major rushing torrent!  It wsa amazing how little time it actually took and how easy it was to take the whole thing apart.  Plastic part off first - and carted to the house - currently dripping water inside on the back steps! - tenants have been warned!  I'll pack it away in a bit and clean off those steps!  Then wing nuts off - and hopefully all saved along with the bolts, - had a jacket with pockets by then!) and framework taken apart in sections and tossed down the bulkhead in back (that's another job for shortly - to get that stuff inside and re-stacked decently). 

Was aggravated though by the tenants who believe in leaving bulkhead doors wide open to snakes, inclement weather and what all - but then that's what they try to do to the front door as well.
