Under Construction

 Back in the Spring I think I posted photos of my old garden shed being demolished. It is where my pool equipment stays. I finally got the wherewithall to purchase a replacement and it was delivered last week. 

   Yesterday was reasonably pleasant, albeit quite windy, so son got started on constructing it. It was supposed to be a one day project!



   So far so good although the wind was causing it to sway until the stabilizing bar was in place. The hardest part was getting it behind the pool equipment. This was yesterday. Today he got the roof on but rain stopped play. Hopefully it will be finished tomorrow.

   We managed one more day of tennis and it was really quite pleasant as the wind had gone. No frozen fingers but no layers removed either. We were well wrapped up. Hoping for a nice day on Sunday!

  3. Perfect timing with having your son stay with you to get that new shed built. I watched a few on the tennis courts by our library yesterday, they did look cold. Let's hope for a good sunny Sunday so you can get another game in.

    1. He is reciprocating for getting to stay here with all the animals! It's a "quid quo pro" arrangement.

  5. I hope your Sunday is good too. We have another Atlantic storm on its way to us tonight. Battening down the hatches now!

  6. The forecast isn't great, unfortunately. Hope you survive the storm headed your way.

  7. A replacement shed is exciting! Now, would I really be that excited for you if not for the pandemic. Maybe not, but I do love a bit of tidy organizing, inside and out. So yay for you!!
