Day 6 with no electricity. Just have the generator to run the fridge and deep freezers, and a couple of tvs for the kiddos.
Sixth consecutive day of upper 90 temps! Have been staying in our 5th wheel at the river, have electric there, so there is AC. Main water line running in the camper busted yesterday filling most of the floor with water, yay!! A huge house boat came down the river spitting out 4-5' rollers, and ripped the rear cleat off my dock, which spun my boat sideways in the rocks on the bank, another yay! Dogs chewed up my pigtail on my boat trailer, so brakes are engaged when I back it up, annoying!
So, when things get somewhat back to normal, I have 8 trees down around my house to clean up, big oaks too, nothing under 15" in diameter. That's all, can't wait for the fun to end!!:datawiz:

Damn man.... Sorry about all the extra snafus.... A/C in the camper is nice, but a broken line is messy. Pex I'd suspect? Pretty easy to cut and recrimp a new line.

The ass that planted a rip curl alongside your dock should be shot in the ass and water-boarded for a few hours. :cuss:

Too much water pressure built up and blew a line off. Not a big fix at all, getting all the water is more trouble than fixing the line.

If I wasn't busy getting my boat off the bank and fixing my dock, I would have chased the dick down! That pisses me off more than anything when people do that. Especially, when your on the dock with kids, tieing your boat up, or working on something. Have the courtesy to slow down dammit!!!

I had it bad during debbie but now, looking back, it was a cakewalk compared to what you have faced.
