    I'm going to try and not too but with those winds we hand yesterday we are going to have some pier that is jacked up. Floating pier...it was air born at times and submerged at other times with a lot of twisting in between.

    I can only imagine.
    You will most likely start to loosen up with activity but remember....you will tighten up when you stop.

    Minions. She prefers the term minions.


    Morning everyone.

    I had a ladder come out from under me while I was cutting a limb off a tree with a chainsaw. I tried to throw it clear as I fell, and the only thing I lost was about a 1/4" chunk of my left index finger.

    I almost broke ribs landing on the ladder when it shifted under me.

    I was blown around on an extension ladder by severe straight line winds. 28 ft. fully extended, halfway down carrying tools etc. The wind flipped the ladder over and I was on the back side hanging on, dropping tools. The wind pushed me and the ladder down and I landed across the hood of my service Van with the ladder on top. Hurt a lot.....I mean a lot.

    Holy crap!

    You know there is a wind limit on ladders :D not that I pay any attention to that.
