My Summer Vacation
Posted: Tue Jul 24, 2007 3:29 pm
I started Friday with a 30 year old Shed and ended today with a new 12x18 barn. Here is what I started with.
This was loaded with tools from the day when I owned an interior business along with all my mechanics tools and lawn equipment including my lawn tractor. This all needed to be taken out and the old shed taken down. The shed was 10x12.
I had to prep a level pad so while I was at it I installed 2 inches of new gravel on our 200' long driveway.
I really worked the crew on a few lumber runs. This pic shows the crew with 10 sheets of 4x8x1/2 plywood, 12 2x4x12s,and 16 2x4x8. This was all used to build the new interior shelving.
finally today I was able to take delivery of the new barn. Five days after I started the project.
Tomorrow I have to start loading the tools back in the new barn out of the temporary storage container I rented. And the pay off? My better half wants to paint the interior of our home. We picked up 8 gallons of paint of various colors on my last trip to Home Depot yesterday. I just love vacations away from the office,
