Well, guess what happened to Termy last night?

No one ever told me there was going to be a wind storm coming from the south yesterday?

That dam wind knocked off shingles on our roof last night and now we have a few leaks. Now my brother and are going to have to go to the hardware store and hopefully get this repaired ourselvs. I had been worried last night as I could here it all happenening, lots of bagning sound against the roof.

Besides going to the hardware store and helping my brother fix this roof, I don't know what else to do. I never dealt with this situation before. I just hope we don't lose the whole roof or something like that!

I do hope that you get this back to normal Termy.  I don't ever remember seeing tiedowns on mobile homes either.  I don't see the tiedowns in your pictures Termy. 

My apologies Termy. I didn't  get to see the pictures. Looks like I have my foot stuck in my mouth.

Ajace... The reason you are not able to see the tie downs is because they are located underneath the house. There are slabs of concrete under the mobile where the tie downs connect to. Even with the tie downs, that day we had the heavy wind storm, we could feel the mobile sort of moving, like if you have a earth quake. See, the tie downs kept us on the foundation. Now, if we did not have tie downs, the house would have been shoved off the foundation and serious damage would have been caused to the mobile and possible injury to us aswell!
