So, while Hurricane Frances had weakened considerably by the time it
passed RIGHT OVER Auburn, AL, I still had to worry about 40mph+ winds
wreaking havoc of the San Francisco mosaic which hangs in my carport.

How does one protect a 12' long, unglued, outdoor, LEGO mosaic from such
winds? Well, it was all a grand experiment, but I think I got by by just
leaning very heavy objects up against it.

Eric,

Looks like Ivan is going to be a bit closer to your house this time, maybe
you'll need something a bit more sturdy to hold that mosaic in place.

yes, I just cut short a biz-trip I had in New Jersey so I could get back
south and secure the house against Ivan.

we'll see if the mosaic can with stand even stonger winds than before
