Posting here and will not read nor answer messages...no power to charge my phone unless I drive out to power. Got cell coverage yesterday afternoon.
Severe damage at the marina...all boats suffered damage from a little to on the bottom. 3 sunk and many more r low in the water. Coyote took quite a bit of damage but no leaks below water...very repairable in time. Isla also has damage but again, repairable. The lot is in total shambles, destroyed new storage building and smaller storage building. The bathroom stood beautifully. Built totally out of 2 x 6, even walls r covered by it and with a hip roof with hurricane tie downs. Fence is down again, bulkhead fence is intact due to so much air flow through it.
Docks r 50 % destroyed. High rebuild needed.
At home...shambles in the yard, water caused ceiling in bathroom to fall about 50 %...some walls got soaked also...same in the closet, broken windows, water on some furniture and wooden floor is swollen and buckling, back big storage building lost most all of the metal roofing, awning attached to back lower deck metal roof half destroyed, need new roof, wing mill down, two trees on front deck, railings destroyed, pine tree down, cottonwood tree down plus many more live oaks. Yard is a disaster of trees and tree limbs plus metal roofing, lumber, broken flower pots and so much I can't think of it all. Clothes is closet r wet as is the carpet there, cellulose insulation was all over the bathroom and half of closet. Starting on that today. No water, no power, etc.
Months of work ahead. Windstorm claim filed and appraiser on his way to us next week!
The tree devastation is unbelievable in our area and many other places. Pray for our entire Coastal Bend area and all areas that were hit r have severe flooding.
Will post again eventually.
