All boarded up & waiting for Ike
Backyard patio, cleared of potential "flying objects" !!
Kitchen windows covered too, better safe than sorry!
Take note - taken before Ike's arrival
Taken after Ike's unwelcomed visit !!
Before our backyard was hit by strong winds.
First view of our backyard after our "ordeal"
Oleander tree - leaning after Ike's powerful winds.
Can't I come out even just for a short walk?
Thank you Lord, no fallen trees.
What happened?
You better look Mommy!!
I can help with the clean-up too!!
It's CLEAN-UP TIME !!
Lots of fallen branches ...
Hurricane debris ....
Lots of shingles end up in our front patio.
Roof leaks in the hallway.
More roof leaks in our guest room ...
One of the trash cans used to catch "roof leaks"
No wonder our roof was leaking !!
This heater vent almost got away ... Egay reinforced it from inside the attic.
Take enough pictures for insurance purposes.
Stripped down of shingles !!
Picture taken the night before hurricane as part of my "preparedness list", do inventory of your valuables JUST IN CASE!!
We heard a loud noise and ran upstair, OMG the ceiling fell!!
That's OK !! at least our electricity came back ....
"Pink stuff" are insulation materials .... careful 'coz it makes you itch!
Ceiling was just too saturated !!
Found the roof leaks inside the attic.
Another one inside the garage !!
Thank god my husband is an excellent "Handy Man"
Temporary roof repair done by Egay
