Redneck Preparations For Tropical Storm Don

Even though it was a "wash", and we didn't get anything from it, this is what I did to prepare for the high winds and rain.

Wow, big preparation for Don. We got a little light rain in Cypress TX. Do you have a drain hole on the low spot of that pipe?

You know that if you hadn't prepared, you'd have gotten a full blown hurricane, right?

What is that, 8"?

I washed my truck and left the windows down to attract rain from Don, got nothing but some cloud cover.

Nice. CJ, were you a boyscout? Them guys are always prepared.


My dad said their prep was fixing the dside window on the little '97 Blazer cause the glass fell down into the door. Dad didn't want to buy good trash bags or tear up his cardboard creeper.

Couldn't you set a bowling ball on the open pipe to keep the rain out?



Cool knots.

From the looks of it the bowling ball might have slid down the stack!

Nice prep work
