I boarded up for Rita, then saved the labeled plywood for future use. It took a good 20 hours to measure, cut and place the plywood for Rita - my neighbors all worked together to do three houses.

We unpacked the plywood from the back of the garage and boarded up all three houses in 3 hours this afternoon.

We are much more prepared than we were for Rita and I am afraid that we will need it this time.

That's the way to get things done! My sister (League City) was looking out her huge bedroom window this morning and saw her neighbors boarding up and thought that maybe they should think about buying some plywood. yikes
