Bob, Watched it from inside..... Was a big blow!. One thing to remember in a dust storm if you have to pull off the road.... Turn off all lights and emergency flashers! Some idiot behind you will think you are on the road......
Glad I don't have a pool anymore. Nothing more fun than vacuuming a 1/2 of dust out of the pool bottom, then having to reverse flush the pump and filter. Congrats on your fast tire change.... !!!
