Personally, had it not been more or less completed under the coverage of our home owner’s policy, I think I would have taken a look at Elkay sinks to replace the sink that was in the house when I moved in 13 or so years ago.

I also would have replaced the counter tops as well.  There is nothing wrong with them, they just don’t match the new cabinets, that replaced the old ones that had been damaged.

I’m one of those people who like things to go together.

If you were a listener, and would like to ask your favorite KRUX Good Guy a question, come on by, it’s free and should be a lot of fun.

Last night our house was hit by what the weathermen on the local TV call “Micro-bursts”.

All of a sudden the roof was pelted with heavy rain, the view out our windows was a heavy white gray and you could hardly see to the street or the back fence.   The “Micro-burst” lasted maybe 5 or 6 minutes, then there was a steady rain fall.

The noise was loud.  The pelting rain was heavy.  The Wind was a howl and loud.  And we could hear what sounded like flapping on our roof.

Being waterproof, I went out front to see if our roof was still there.

It was.  But I found in our front yard what looked like asphalt from the roof.  Not one piece, not two, but at least a dozen and they were across the street and two doors down.

And the street was filled with water speeding West to East toward the end of our block.

I went out back, ant there I found , the roof on our patio, ripped up.  It wasn’t all gone, but enough that water was coming through the boards onto the patio itself.  Chairs and other things near the outside wall of the house, normally dry, were soaking wet.

You get the picture, patio roof gone.  I’m happy that I don’t have my antennas up, cause most likely knowing my “Luck”  at least one of them would have thought it was an arrow and been found sticking out of Somebody’s roof a block away, or maybe through their front window.

Maybe I should build a basement and put the antennas down there.

I remember those days because it was one of the best jobs I held during my broadcast career.

I’m looking forward to the Public Event that is going to be held in the Auditorium at the Main Scottsdale Public Library, which is next to the Scottsdale Stadium on August 28TH, starting at 1PM.  For me it’s going to be fun to see some of the other announcers who I worked with over 45 years ago.
