This is our [private] shelter room -- All are located inside the building (no outside walls), reinforced concrete, the door [when properly closed] is anti gas and anti shrapnel. Arrows -- air ducts, where we can adapt an anti gas filter.... OMG Dani...that is so sad you have to go through that. 😥 With all that is going on in the world with Covid, and now you have to deal with that. Demons of the world be damned. Hope you stay safe, and this is over with soon. Just tried to pull up your situation on the news on TV and can't find any station covering it. Not even CNN, which needs to report it. Found it all over the web news though. Worthless TV news channels. Scary for you all for sure. 😮 Edited May 11, 2021 by island lady 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheal Posted May 11, 2021 #16053 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Dani, I'm sorry to hear that the situation has worsened. Being safe at home is something many of us take for granted. I am so sorry you are going through this! 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see an end to the violence from both sides. I'll just say this -- human life for me, my family, my friends and a larger circle around us -- is sacred. No territories, no "stones" are worth the loss of even one life. If there is peace -- you can worship anywhere, without "actually owning" the "land". 25 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare bobmacliberty Posted May 11, 2021 #16059 Share Posted May 11, 2021 1 hour ago, OnTheJourney said: so what is the filtering media if not DE? Just wondering. I have an old Apollo VA-52 DE filter (we're talking OLD too...installed in '89). Not sure what the filter media is but guessing some sort of poly that looks like thin paper, arranged in pleats so that there's a lot of surface area. They claim that these filters can hold up to 2-3 times as much dirt as other filters so that many pools can go an entire season without needing any filter attention. When they do get dirty, you take the top off the tank and hose them down. I do that once a season about a month after opening since we don't get all of the crap out from the winter. More details here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted May 11, 2021 #16062 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Answer to above.... "Quoth the Raven nevermore". 😄 Goofy Raven hopped right over to our car, looking like he wanted to jump right in with us when I opened the car door as we parked on the side street in Mendocino. Guess he didn't like that I didn't have any Raven food with us. 😄 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're now firing lots of rockets in the same time, which "Iron Dome" has difficulty to tackle. In less than 24 hours, almost 500 rockets were fired. We're "lucky" in the sense that our city is, for now, at the limit of their rockets range from the south. We have a minute alert, whereas in the south they have 15 seconds to find shelter. Dani this is terrible and we really feel for you and your family as well as your fellow compatriots. Our late parents told us about 1939-1945 and outside bomb shelter's and how frightening it was. Sending you all our very best wishes and prayers for your safety now and in the future. Lots of love from Pauline and Graham xx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the last half hour, an enormous and unprecedented number of missiles to Tel Aviv and north, where we are. We were used to one missile and then a bit of respite. Not now. ... DS1 is in Tel Aviv, renting in a very old building. Sent pic. No shelter.... DS2 is in Modi’in, new building, with the kids in the shelter.

Last year we were in a rental car in Montana when one of those big suckers flew into the car and busted off the drivers side mirror. To add insult to injury, the damn thing shook off the impact with us and flew away. One tough bird! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel guilty though that we are enjoying our life here...and poor Dani is going through so much. Not fair. Those demons firing the rockets need to get a grip and stop their carnage, which gets them no where. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
