    TREES, they're beautiful, but thanks to trees, there will be NEW projects when the wind blows hard. Think you oughta save that concrete project for cooler weather? You EARNED a nice rest. Well done on that massive, back breaking, sweat pouring fence project!!! Happy Day!

      I am going to take today off. I’m going to make a materials list for the screened in porch and add it up to see how long we’ll have to save. Then, maybe tomorrow I’ll start on the concrete ramp.

    I can hear the relief in your voice at finishing the fence project. You are a better man then I am. I'm too old to be doing a project like that. Have fun on the new projects.

    Sweet rag day here, today. Feels like is supposed to be 104. Thankful that the high next Wednesday is forecast to be 78. Summer is winding down. Yeah!
    *CONGRATULATIONS* on finishing that fence. Can't imagine the sense of relief you had when the last staple was hammered in. As to your next project, would it be easier to build a mini platform accessed via a wooden ramp? If feasible, suspect it would be easier on your back than digging and pouring concrete. ... Just a thought for FWIW.
    Sis had it last December. She spent 8 days in the hospital. She also tested positive for RSV at the same time. Last week my brother had it. His cough is already getting better. It's time for flu shots again. Thus, push for a whole list of shots along with that one. Other Sis said there's a new and improved shingles shot this year.
    As always, hope you and Charly have a blessed day. Godspeed.

      @@bctruck Good to hear you're resting, a bit, today. ENJOY! Especially porch time. We screened in ours, a number of years ago, for the very same reason.
      BTW, mine was about like the flu, as well. Coughing seemed to be a little worse and definitely lasted longer.
      I've got to make the 25 mile round trip to pick up prescriptions, in a few minutes. Shopping, too?? Haven't decided, yet.

    I’m glad to see you are done with the fence and I know you and your back is for sure.
    Too bad you don’t have a roto tiller to dig that pad and strip up, maybe you can borrow one.
    I told my brother several months ago that they would wind everyone up before election and I figured it would be over the supposed monkey pox. A scientist already said it doesn’t exist, but got to put that fear in people for it to be pushed.
    A screened in porch would be enjoyable.
    Have a blessed day everyone and stay healthy.

    Definitely, start ramping up the ramps. Ramps and a hand truck will get you to 100.
    Without them, you’ll end up needing them and won’t have the juice to build them.

    I got that bug when it first hit and spent 4 days in the hospital. So, when the shot became available, we both took it and a couple of the boosters as well. I think I will get the flu shot but will forego the new one.

      We both had it and we also had RSV. It was no worse than the flu. Back when it first made its electoral debut, we didn’t comply and the only place that gave us and crap, was one guy at Walmart who thought he could intimidate me into wearing one. That didn’t work for him.
