    All this chit seems very heavy. They just cut it in the last few days. Although there has been some that are heavier than others. That is for sure. Do you think I have both in there? Possible I guess. And I don't know that it matters. As I am doing this I am thinking of all the extra work it creates to use this type of wood to "save some money". But, I will end up with a stronger, heavier barn this way. And less expensive. Extra work, but less expensive. It will be one sturdy barn.

    30 years ago I worked at a sawmill and most of the rough lumber we sold was hemlock. Try to hammer a nail in it by hand and it's almost like oak and it almost weighs as much as oak.

    Dinner break time. Just my son and I here and I am wore out. But need to go back out at 7 and do some more. So I took him to McDonalds. That made him a happy camper. He just got out of soccer practice and iced a sore leg for a while. He is twelve and as thin as a rail. But a pretty strong kid. (I knew those chores and all that wood moving and stacking would work. :D) Anywho, he ate a Filet-o-fish, a Quarter Pounder w/cheese, large fry, and two apple pies! :faint:
    I just had a salad and a water.:whistle:What?

    I don't know. But I was glad the sandwiches are both on the McPick 2 deal. Any two for $5.

    Right where I want to be.
    Life is full of choices.
    Sometimes, the ones we make aren't very smart.
    How difficult is it to make a pot of coffee in the morning? Not very. I did it this morning (as I do every morning).
    Let's see, brew my own for pennies per POT, or be lazy and buy a CUP of coffee for $5...........hmmmm
    Man, the worms are already crawling out of the can.

    No. But I doubt a salad and a water are causing these noises around here.:whistle::emb:
