[QUOTE="pictaker64, post: 255257, member: 18065"] For sure,I own a seamless gutter business down here on the shore and I cant tell you how many sad stories I see,While its been great for construction,its not the way any of us wanted to get work.I have friends who have owned a home down here since the 50's.Their grandfather built it with his own hands,not a great big place,just a bungalow,but,because it was a second home they received just enough to put it in a dumpster,which they did.They now are selling the lot because they cant afford to build a new one.Sad stuff all around.Everyday I pass places either being torn down or completely gutted and sitting empty.Its a scary thing to think one storm could have that much effect on this place.I sat through it in my house,I am far from the water,but,surrounded by trees,and having heard what 90 mile an hour wind sounds like,I would never do it again.It was only gusts to 90,so I wouldnt know what sustained would feel like,but my advise to anyone in the path of a storm like that is get away.
