Finally, a productive day! Well, yesterday was productive in that I did get that tower situation taken care of. But today I got even more done and feel good about it.
First I went into town and bought food. I like food! 🙂 Brrrr! The mornings are getting cool now. It was still in the mid 30s when I headed to town, up from a low of 26 when I awoke at dawn. I keep forgetting to put on extra layers for these trips and I was really cold by the time I got home. It could be worse. Two months from now mid 30s (above zero) will qualify as a heat wave!
I took a little break after the shopping trip while waiting for frost to melt and muddy ground to dry up a little. I decided to check the web site of a man who sells antique radio parts and found that he had gotten a few in that I really wanted. Cool! Soon I will have all the parts for my next hobby project. By the way I finally completed the one I had been working on in the Spring. Anyone interested can see it here.
Finally around noon it was dry enough to work around the house without being covered head to toe in mud. I managed to get the rest of the plywood on the outside today. Tomorrow I can do the home wrap and the door frame. Hopefully I can get the door installed the following day. Then I can do some annual preparation for winter that is not related to the project but nevertheless needs to be done soon. After that, whatever happens with the weather will not cause me any real headaches. Yay!
Paul,
All I can say is that it is really cool that you can put that stuff together & have it work. I am very impressed. That is quite a skill you have there!
