New View

 For 4 months, when we looked out the

patio doors, all we could see 

was a big white truck up on blocks.

And then Rod got it FINISHED!

(He's actually driving it today!)

We drove it to church yesterday.

NICE TRUCK!

It was wonderful to look out the 

patio doors and see the garden.

For a minute.

Then Kyle used his Cat and started stacking his house.

(See him in the background...)

He lifts it with the foks, but also has it strapped

to his Cat with serious yellow straps.

Of course, now the arms are still up in the air

because the straps are hooked to them.

So I got to come out and unhook him so he

could get his front door open and get out!

We have had a LOT of rain this month,

so his wood is looking a little weathered.

He brought out the shopvac and sucked out

all the water. Left it in the sun for a day

(fingers crossed for no rain)

and then tarped it all.

He'll spray it all good with a bleach solution

when he moves it to the ranch and kill

all the mildew spores.

No point in doing it yet though...

And this is our current view.

Likely for a month.

Or so.

That's a LOT of house!

Once he gets it all piled on the trailer it will

be about 12 feet tall (including the trailer)

but will still fit under the bridges on the highway.

Oh! And Rod got an amazing deal (free!) on a new

topper for the new white truck.

That will keep the dogs (etc) safe and dry 

on the trip.

(And be good for trips into the "big" city in the future...)

Things are moving forward!
