Marco and Laura
I guess all the bad weather this week will cause a work stoppage on the pier reno. We have rain from Marco here in Cullman already.

Marco was a nothing but flash in the pan, barely a fizzle.
And as for Laura, besides a little heavy surf, she should be a complete non-issue too.
Yeah sure, another temporary slowdown/stoppage to an alreay far behind schedule state projectjjfish and eym_sirius like this.Ragnar Benson:

If you see natural water taste it. If it's salty it has sharks in it. If it's fresh it has alligators in it. If it's brackish it has both.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
