On Sunday, we returned and did even more sawing, measuring, hammering, and stringing, It rained again but made for nice working weather. This time around, I came prepared:
I learned my lesson the day before wearing these:
They obviously were not cutting it, especially when we had to trek around in this all day:
Wisest $25 I've spent in a long time! Don't I look serious in them?
(Now I know why I have a wrinkle on my forehead) |
Meanwhile, Ken continued to drive stakes into the ground:
He was swinging that sledgehammer so fast, it turned into a blur
I attempted it again, and I wasn't too successful
But at least I was decent at cutting them!
From the street, this is what the view looks like:
I took a picture/trail mix break, while Ken continued in deep thought
Not sure when we will get any more work in. We are currently waiting on the permit, then comes the fun stuff! I'll keep you posted :)
Hey Christine - I really like the pictures of the new boots. You always have a unique point of view when taking pictures. You are gaining some valuable skills. Seems like you are learning alot. Just think - if you ever need a side job, you could build houses (hahaha). Thats great you and Ken are doing it together. I'm sure he enjoys having you to help. The lot looks like a good size and the neighborhood appears to be upscale. Thanks for the blog. I am enjoying the pictures. Keep them coming... mom
