Hurricane Fay hit both Clemson and our humble hamlet hard -- Woody and I returned home on Tuesday night to find our kitchen, dining room and living room floors soaked from leaks. Once again Brian came to the rescue, racing down from Spartanburg with tarp and Petzl head lamp in tow. Woody and Brian scaled the house in the rain in the dark to put up our roof Band Aid. "I think we would win the Stupid People Olympics with this one," said Brian. Here they are competing in the Team Tarping event:
Brian on the roof
Woody on the roof
The result of their handiwork:
This is particularly wonderful because it eliminates the need for window treatments in our home. As you can see, we now have gray tarp sconces. These are all the rage in Dubai, I hear. One day maybe Brian will be able to come to our home and keep his feet on the ground the entire time. When this was mentioned, he replied "But what fun would that be?"

It looks gorgeous with all the gray flowing down like polluted water from a cesspool. You guys are troopers and I will give you a medal for your efforts one day.
Great to see you guys at the baby shower.
Peace out.
