Reminds me of when I was the swing shift harbormaster at Pillar Point Harbor in Half Moon Bay during the early 70’s, and we got hit by a storm that during my watch pegged the wind meter at 92 mph.  “Was that the dumpster that just went by airborne?”

Keep your eyes open for flying dumpsters, Taylor-O…

Patched quite a few dings on the roofs of a house and barns over the summer and fall.  Couldn’t afford new ones,  We’ll see if they blow off or not this week. I’m actually working on a tear off and re-side on the exterior of a house.  Two sides at a time; scaffolded and tented. The only winter work I could find in PC.  Surf is as you would expect when storms like this come around up here.  Been spending any spare time 'rockin the shaping rooms.  Lowel

Good times!

Got a bit of a wind shadow here…  Rain from all sides, but keeps the gusts down.
