    Great day at the office (jobsite), 78 deg and low humidity...
    The rest of the week looks promising too. Pulled out and cleaned the patio set this afternoon.
    Had some tacos and some good conversation with my wife, things are looking up.

    Long day here. At the shop from 7:30 till 6:30, home and bid work until now-(1:15 am) Just getting ready for dinner before the alarm goes back off at 6 am.
    May is gonna be a loooong month for me. But, what I did tonight is 95% certain, so it keeps the guys working through July.
    If they only knew......:smoke:

    Can't wait until my next day off so I can go back to work on an area I am trying to finish off. I have most of the trees removed I don't want. Just a few more to go. Most of the brush is now gone. In another 1/2 day I think I can have it ready. Then I will need to find, buy, and drive some cedar fence post in. I think I am going to cut some Ash down and use about 4-5" diameter Ash for the rails. Should give it a cool look. Maybe something like this.

    [​IMG] The rails would not be inserted into the post though. Just be screwed or nailed to the inside of the post.

    Knocking off work a little early today. Might try one last trip to the woods to look for mushrooms with the kids, then we're going to grill some brats and dogs before their baseball games this evening.

    Got to get up at 2:30AM tomorrow to head out for a quick road trip to MD.
