Speaking of roof - house floating, dab of tar here and there or 5000 sq ft. tarp ?
Hope it was simple!!!


Several years ago it was tar for me - I had a Coastal Redwood limb fall but end
first and drive a hole through my shop roof. I found it the next day checking the
house for leaks due to the massive wind storm and rain...

This time, Gunner gets the Pineapple express (sorry Hawaii! ) and I get a 24" oak
to fall across my driveway across the 220 feeder lines and wedge into some Redwoods.

Thank the storm god on that one, it was the tree next to the power pole and the
heavy weight - on the wires "threatened the pole" so the Power company PG&E called
a tree service - Davey - managed to cut the 40 or 50' tree and drop or swing
the chunks to the sloping driveway so they wouldn't roll. The driveway is between
30 degree and 45 degree slope depending on the side or location...

The shop is at the bottom of the slope (live on a hill side - 30' setback means
down hill house...) and a bedroom and office in danger if the bottom
end swings or kicks out and the top goes like a tossed log...

I got the tree down and then paid for a hauler to take just over 100 cu ft of cut and
crushed down Oak and Redwood limbs to the dump. The logs sit for now -
looking for a home.

I have a home for a few of them - anvil holders :-)

Martin (yet another near hit!)
