No, they are exactly like my kids. My wife is a rancher's daughter, in her world cat's exist to mouse (verb), if they do an awesome job they move on to the next ranch. "Their" cats were feral. If they had a really good mouser they would feed it to keep it around. Their dogs, on the other hand, even though working dogs were allowed inside and were part of the family (unless they ate one of her Mom's chickens, and then . . . well never mind). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis There were several hotel chains offering free rooms to evacuees from Florence. Hiltons were one of them.

JohnJ Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 It's a shame that this has to come from the eu. Tabloid on tv "news" here was done with the storm a week ago after acknowledging rain was the biggest issue with it. Then they ignore the facts of how that comes into play and move on. They're busy with rumors from known biased individuals to further their never-ending coup d'état. Hockey starts counting on the big screen tomorrow night! All those folks that got hit hardest by the storm are getting hit a second time by that rain we and the mountains got upstream from them hundreds of miles away.

CECAA850 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Those pictures look eerily similar to how it looked around here a year ago after Harvey hit us. There are still people putting their lives back together 12 months later. The people in the Carolinas have a long road to recovery. My heart goes out to them. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true, it actually looks cleaner when the water is still in it as that girl is looking at it. Then the water goes down and the mold starts to take over, it's best to strip it all as fast as possible and spray with bleach. Just to start. If you have a house with water, strip anything wet like drywall and insulation and spray all wood framing down with bleach and ventilate it as much as possible, if the AC still works use it to dry it out and lower the humidity. When you work on it if there is any visible mold wear a good respirator. By the time the water went down after a couple of weeks, a couple of weeks later there was mold on everything, on some things 1/2" thick. It is the reason my wife has been so sick for the last couple of years, you get a type of mold in your lungs after being around it breathing it in. The doctors are saying there not exactly sure how to treat it other than different antibiotics to find something that might work. We helped strip my aunts house for weeks, I was also coughing alot but i got over it after a couple of months. Christy never did get over the cough. The doctors say this is something new that has come up, there has never been so many cases and no experience to look back on to know about long term problems or proven way to treat it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
