    Good progress today.
    Once the base is down, just have to stack the rest.

    Used some of the original wall stones for the end.
    Tribute to my Dad's hard work and ingenuity.

    Inspector does not seem too impressed.

    Okay, so I have been working 6 days a week 13 to 14 hours days, so I did not do this, but had a couple of younger Mennonite guys take it down for me, 2 days, they took the lumber and tin. Saved me a lot of time if I did it my self.

    I've only been off work for about 2 weeks but decided to take on a deck redo me and Mrs. D have been talking about. The railing was blocking our view of the sunsets.
    Next I have to finish my splitting before the days start getting to hot.

    That’s where I’m at...trying to get the wood split before it gets too hot. Good luck on the splitting and the deck. Busy time of year!

    I’ve been part time on the wood cutting for a couple weeks now because of my wife’s request. In the end, I think it’s a good thing. Kids are gonna need a bit more this summer for entertainment since people are laying low for the time being. Probably set up the pool this next weekend. Just finished this today and looks like adverse weather for the next couple days. 78B393E6-38C4-490D-AEAA-C0484282067D.jpeg 38A550C9-CE3B-4A35-A4BE-E4686973ED0B.jpeg
