Sorry to hear about the damage to your house. It looks like a scene from a Norman Rockwell painting. Is it a pre or post WWll construction and is it a sears & roebuck mail order kit? I’ve worked on three of those mail order houses but not one similar to yours ( if in fact yours is ) , and I have a friend who has all the designs and patterns for the ornaments.
Anyway I’m you survived the tornado, I guess you folks don’t get as many up there as we do in the Deep South. I’ve seen far too many and hope I never see another.
It was the first tornado in the area in 70 years. The house was in the funnel but yeah definitely not as many as the south and west do. But anyway no the house was built in 1908 has a ton of original stained glass and pocket doors for every room and free gas as well as recently hooked up to city water even though I’m like 15 miles from town. The house was originally the home of a government official that was gifted the local 800 acres after the civil war. He had the house built in 1908 for his kids and farmed the area and parceled off the land. The house has only had three owners including myself and no children till me lol. I’m getting a natural gas generac hooked up next spring.

Authorities suspect fireworks started this fire in NorCal. I'm not sure exactly where you are at @Grandpapy are you alright?....

Thanks jj, power has been off since around 6pm, right now the fire is about 5miles away, expecting evac orders soon if they don't get a handle on it.

So far today , I've been laying here in the dark doing my nightly routine in order to go to sleep...........get so high that I go over the rainbow . My wife and I refer to these monster hits, which facilitate our slumber, as " Death Blows " .........so here I am , wanting to get really fucked-up , stuffing weed in the bubbler inlet tube ......no bowl !
I'm getting there......the Holyland !

Now that the new shed is mostly built. I was able to clear out all of the clutter from my shop, which is great. I cant stand to work in messy areas, and I need to get back in the shop today to start another cabinet for the grass valley job. It will be a china/liquor cabinet for the dining area.
