F-ing wind!
damn this wind is something, first im out in the garage working on the mini-tubbing and half the maple tree behind the garage falls on the garage and scares the shat out of me, now the wind has blown a large black bag of garage debris/garbage that i set out to the curb earlier this evening out into the street. If thats not bad enough, some tool drove into/over it and now there is trash and debris of all kinds blowing allover the road, into my neighbors yards and for that matter all over the damn township!!!! I just spent the last 10 minutes of so dodging cars, flying debris, animals, ect picking up airbound crap from my yard, the road, 2 neighbors yards....sweeping the nails and **** out of the road   , god what a mess.....
cant wait to see what to see what it looks like tommorow
and somhow i managed to get ink all over my hands

At least you are nice enough to get the crap out of the road so another driver doesn't get a flat or something.
My Jeep was blowing all over Rt. 1 on the way in to work this afternoon.

Spent the day in Manhattan, holding onto my 5 yr old, like a kite, between buildings.
And like it was said, thanks for going around and actually picking it up. I have a few neighbors who just expect everything they throw out, to fly from ewst to east and end up somewhere down the street. :P

Yeah, that wind was nuts! I have our old treadmill on the side of the house waiting for junk day, and when my wife came home from work she told me it blew over onto my neighbor's property. I couldn't believe it! There's a bunch of branches and crap now all over the yard as well. At least the other half of my neighbor's tree is still standing. The first half of it came down into my yard and through the roof of my shed two years ago during a hurricane.

Yeah its pretty crazy, spend all day down in the barn working on the car and it actually blew the roof off the top of the structure we made to keep the air compressor in. Made out of aluminum and was slamming around, scared the crap out of me.

Sorry Kasey, but it was on it's way out. The motor was getting REALLY loud and the tread area was starting to separate, so we had to replace it. And of course, considering my size, I had to disassemble the entire thing and bring it out in pieces so I could carry the damn thing.
