Because it's really windy at our house!

Our screen tent used to look like this..

The wind picked it up and threw it across the yard. I checked for feet all Wizard of Oz style. There weren't any. It's a good thing, too. I don't need that kind of pressure. I'm sure you don't get off light for killing a witch, even if she is mean.

It's not light by any means. It's cast iron! It's the opposite of light.

It was anchored to the ground with 6 inch nails, what the heck! I'll bet the warranty won't cover wind damage, damn it, and I can't even claim it on our home owners..figures. I guess we'll just have to try and fix it.

Ohhhh that's terrible. I saw something like that at Kohls the other day and almost bought one. I'm SO sorry. That sucks !!

YIKES!
I am so glad no one got hurt!
Even a wicked witch!

Crazy freakin' weather!!!

i was reading about your nor'easters yesterday, and i thought of you. too bad i neglected to warn you to bring the gazebo in...

yow. that's some kinda crippled.......

[this is good]

Holy crap!!! That is just not fair. It was windy here, but no damage as far as I can tell. Lots of tree down other places in the neighborhood. I hope your gazebo is fixable. It looks like such a relaxing place to sit on a warm day. Well, looked...

I have high hopes that we can fix it with minimal damage. Stunning really - I'll bet I could have made the wind die off completely if only I had taken my kite out to fly. Then we'd be like "Where's the wind?".

I think a better caption for the second picture would be "One HECK of party!"

We'll rebuild, we have the technology. Better, stronger, and less ascetically pleasing than every! That technology is sure to include (drum roll please) duct tape!

Holy! Good thing you didn't take the kite out, DeWitte, you migth have flown to Oz. Those pesky witches can think of all sorts of things to throw you off guard.

Oh no!!! Your beautiful gazebo. I'm so sorry that happened. You should see my sad face. I hope you can get it fixed back up looking nice again.

oh, god. duct tape.

cancel my flight.....

Hey, I only use the asthetically pleasing kind.

When you think about it, this may be a good thing. Due to global warming, and since you are extremely close to the Atlantic Ocean, my thought is you guys will soon be living on beach front property. This screen house can easily be dismantled and used as a sail or sails. Since you have already tested for wind strength and efficiantcy (sp) you are good to go!

Hahahaha....at Judy!
