Right where I was standing when I took the picture. I plan to start it soon. I'm still counting my pennies to see what I can afford.

We are building a new field house at the school. After school my grandson came out and asked if we had something he could do.

It wasn't very safe when I was learning. I look back at some of the things that I survived and it was only by the Grace of God that I'm still here.

Glad you survived! I’m sure it was a steep learning curve

Re: My Facetruck thread.
Your new home looks large and I am sure it will be beautiful, Larry. Would you mind sharing any drawings of what you are building?

It was 3 years ago right now we were building our new house. We had an excellent contractor who made the process fun and pretty easy for us. I am guessing you have an excellent contractor too….

The contractor on our house is lazy and can't seem to make a decision.

I'm surprised he doesn't quit the way she talks to him sometimes. She has cut his pay in half several times.

That is one our most common exchanges.
I say "Well, you wanted me."
Her, "Funny, I can't remember that at all.".

Actually we get along pretty well. She has been my biggest supporter in my ventures. Scared sometimes, but supportive.

Because it was for the left rear tire and wheel, and they couldn't actually afford even that!
