Wind Storm Pictures - October 2005


Some of you may not know about the gale force winds that rearranged our docks on October 5, 2005.  At over 45 MPH for nearly a full day, they were the highest we've ever experienced since we've been at the resort.  They worst part of it was the direction they came from.  The northeast wind is the only wind that can create a problem with wave action in our bay and well, wave action doesn't quite cover what we saw on October 5, 2005.  The good news is, nobody was hurt and we'll be able to put things back together for next spring.  As usual, when something goes wrong, we'll do our best to find a way to make it stronger and better than it was before.  Here are some photos for those interested in what happened that day.

Here is the before.  Quite, peaceful.  A little fog in the morning.  Take a week or so before the wind storm.  Everything is where it should be.


Here's one from taken from almos the same spot as the above photo, except during the big blow.  Click on these to enlarge.


Then after.  When things has calmed down a little.  A bit of a mess, eh? Click these to enlarge as well.


We put enough back together to get through the year, but the majority of the repairs will take place in the spring of 2006.  Just when you think you're getting ahead of the game a little bit too.  Oh well, I guess it's not so bad to have the first 3 weeks of your spring time all planned out. HAHAHA
