I am on the edge of Charley (10 mi away or so) and we are really lucky but
there are still some folks with some damage. It amazes me how many of them are
still sitting around wringing their hands and not even trying to do anything to
protect and fix their stuff. It makes me wonder how much of these insurance
claims are just because people won't put up some plastic and move their crap
out of the rain. The homeowners really should be lining up contractors before
they all get booked. Screw waitingh for the insurance guy. They are just going
to pay what they are going to pay and if you mitigate the damage you have a
better chance of getting a decent percentage covered.
