JPJ also needs to tell the rest of the story.
The awning strap was hanging down in case the awning needed to be retracted. The winds were blowng and there were thunderstorms all around. He was partaking of the shade provided by my awning, while commenting on "analness" yet it was he who felt compelled to fold and press my awning strap before putting it away. He did not have his awning out because he just had it dry cleaned and was afraid of getting a little dust and hail on it.
