The guy brought the stuff at 1:30 on Sunday, it took an hour to unload, and another hour for Peg and I to sort through all the stuff and put doors, hardware, etc. into the shed in case it rains.....
The guy was pretty good with the boom...
Not as big a stack of stuff as I expected, but I knew it was going to be plenty of work.
We finally got organized enough to start, and we got 1/2 of the east wall smacked together and standing..... enough for the first day.
We started early this morning, Memorial Day. We had fixed up the cemetary box with some geraniums and marigolds, so I took that to Ogema first thing. Then I started on the garage. Peg had to leave for a while for Scouts in the parade in Phillips, but I made a little progress while she was gone.
Mid afternoon we paused for a few minutes and I downed a nice Goose Island oatmeal stout. It tasted really good out there under the maple tree....
By 7:30 this evening we had completed all the walls and had them standing. Not too shabby for one day. Peg and I both are suffering for all the work, as we both have inactive jobs and we're not too in shape..... Oh, well, there's plenty more to do.
I gotta go, Carlo
