Thanks, but it’s more fun watching my wife have a panic attack, and then getting mad at me for not coming up with a safe place to hunker down (because there isn’t any). I always tell her, after the threat has passed, that we are both way to ornery to die in that fashion. We live on acreage and the chances of it hitting us are slim, and we experience maybe 3 threats a year at the most.
About 3 or 4 times a year I wish we had one, but I can’t justify the expense. Unfortunately, today is one of those 3 or 4. At least I don’t have to worry about roof damage, and all but 2 of the skylights are already broken. I expect the forecast 70 mile an hour winds mean that I’ll be having to re-tarp tomorrow on at least some of them.
