    Time to move my carport in to turn it into a woodshed. First pics are the current mess of overgrown weeds around the firewood. Got the pallets of firewood moved out and the area leveled off. Next will be carefully moving the carport into place. Gota take a break for a few hours and go to work though. image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

    It's tucked in a good spot, and I'll be anchoring it down so shouldn't be an issue

    That should really work out nicely for you Sean. Nice job of making the move look easy too.

    The Massey wasn't up to it or you just had the bobcat handy?

    bobcat is my brothers so easy to get and its is a lot more efficient and faster with moving lots of firewood at one time.
