Catches: Wild Animals, construction crews working late, and
more.

painting it with color. It seals the surface so the paint
adheres to the surface instead of soaking into the wall.

ICF HOUSE BUILT TO WITHSTAND CAT 5 HURRICANES
·
This small ICF house is constructed to withstand a
cat 5 hurricane with
its 6" Fox Block and maintain its integrity during intense winds
because
of its small size and thick cement walls.
·
It's hurricane-resistant windows can resist
category five hurricanes too.
If flying debris does hit a window, the added protection will
keep the
glass from breaking up into large sharp pieces (like your
windshield).
·
This house's HIP metal roof design can withstand
cat5 hurricane with
winds speeds up to 180 mph which is well over the 120+ mph when
Hurricane Irma that hit this very neighborhood in 2017.
·
Monolithic foundation that was built up 36” higher
than the ground around it.
·
Thick metal HIP style roof (really wind
resistance).
·
Commercial grade wind/Impact resistance steel
doors and garage door.
UPDATED: Why I can't take the shots today. Maybe later!!!
https://youtu.be/LmS5Re3AqVw
Why I can't and won't take the shots that many have taken: -----
The democrats called Trump and Republicans like myself
conspiracy nuts when we said the disease came from the
Wuhan-laboratory.
Well, we were proven right. The virus did come from a Chinese
laboratory that Dr. Fauci helped to fund. ----- Fauci is a
moron. This was man made. Designed in a Chinese laboratory.
Why would anyone create this in any country? -----
Fauci is a moron. In the 1980's there is video of him saying
that we need to wear masks to prevent the spread of AIDS. Well,
that was a lie. Masks do not prevent the spread of AIDS. -----
Fauci is a moron. Remember March 2020 where Fauci said we need
15 days to flatten the curve? Everyone needs to stay at home &
mask up! Well, we know that was a lie... -----
