Fix Up, Clean Up

The insurance adjustor came today... he found more damage than we did. Looks like we'll be replacing a ceiling and a wall inside, and an exterior wall on our storage area under the house. Lots of other clean up, paint, and replacing trim... but, compared to many of our friends and neighbors, not too bad.

I fixed the dock first thing, then went to work on the soffetts under the eves. The roof stayed intact and looks good. It's a wonder when you see all the shingles laying around. Tomorrow, we'll start powerwashing the house... lots of tarry stuff where shingles hit us.

We put the toy hauler in storage yesterday and checked on Wild Blue (our boat) - she did fine. I was hoping to bring her back and get her launched again, but one of us (and I won't mention her name) thinks I won't get anything else done if the boat is back in the water. Well, duhhh... isn't that the point? ;-) The boat will have to wait a while, I guess.

As soon as we hear from the dealer about our new 5th wheel, we'll make some plans to head out again.
