The roof looks nearly bullet proof.

The old homestead is really looking great, Charlie. I guess not having any engines to fiddle with is allowing you to get some real work finished.

Thanks everyone!

The internet seems to be better at night.

Update from today:

We hung the gates on the front pipe fence yesterday. I had been waiting for it to settle for a couple weeks. And I cleaned out 50+ years of junk and filth from the detatched Garage.

Today, we will make doors for the old garage. I bought the steel tubing by phone and it was delivered yesterday. I am recycling old corrugated steel from the property for the sheathing. Amazing what a redneck can do with a welder. 🤠

I will try to post some more pictures later today.

Filled up a dump trailer with trash from the garage.

If I was closer, you probably would have found me digging junk out of that trailer

The ranch house looks great - it's always good to be able to do a lot of the work yourself........builds the ego and saves money for more steam!

You've definitely been through Hell's half acre the last several months Jim ..... I'd say doing some steaming might could do you a world of good!!!

Hi,

We received this from our daughter-in-law this morning.  To two teenage daughters playing table tennis in the kitchen with their Dad must it seem a little slow.  They live in the country and have horses so they have to go out mornings and evenings.  Now each loose box has its own sets of named tools our son says the named wheel barrows look when lined up like private owner coal wagons.
