Very nice glad to hear it that would have been a very very sad day to loose though lovely lady
Yeah I tried to post a video but couldn't get it to upload correctly. It shows the hoop house barely even wiggling in the wind gusts. I was standing in my garage watching it out of the back door through the whole thing. I had to burn some Double Durban Kush and Sour Banana Sherbert just to get through it without having a heart attack.
In the end the only damage was from one branch I watched flying from about one hundred yards out. It was like a missile aimed straight at the side. It made a nickel sized whole in the plastic. And I then ran out and unlocked the door, put up a ladder and shoved it back out before it could tear anymore while flopping in the wind. That's when I thought to myself this is crazy and went back in the garage. But while I was in the hoop house, the entire thing was way more stable than I ever thought it would be.
When it was over the boys and I walked out to check on everything. Looking at the damage in our yard, neighborhood and community we decided that we had obviously done the construction as good as could be. Lots of pating each other on the back and such. Lol
We got several calls and texts asking if it was still standing too! No one could believe it after seeing buildings and grain bins flattened. Soooooo, I guess we did that right.
