Let me be the first to say, it's been raining here for most of the last eleven, and I hope it ends soon.

It's Monday. Back to work. ICK! Busy, busy here with boat launching season. Boat people can be rather demanding...some seem to believe they are the only customer we have and the world and our schedule revolves around them.

We are getting a new shed delivered at home tomorrow. That's a big deal since our garden shed is as old as the house which is almost 50 years. Rick had resided it and re-roofed it years ago, but it's tired and requires too much work to bring it back to life. A local shed place pre-builds a shed on their site and delivers it in pieces and finishes the process right in our yard. We were able to choose the size we want, color, position of the door, etc. It will be slightly bigger than the one we had to better accommodate the lawn mower and snow blower. They also will destroy and remove the old shed.

Pics to follow later in the week.

OK back to the paperwork. Have a good day, all.

When was the last time you tried to go buy a set of shoelaces.....
It seems the shoes normally wear out first.
I have a few sets of golf shoes that need laces.

One shop on Amazon wanted $7.99 a pair plus $5.99 for shipping...

We bought one of those at work to use as a warming hut but we had to assemble it. We added a deck to it and electricity and heat all in all by the time we were done the 4k dollar shed cost us 20k and that's not including the fine we got as my boss refuses to get a building permit. To top it off no one ever uses it.

Before and after.




Everything fits with room to spare. We still have a cheapie shed that houses the generator... looks rather ugly now.

No additions or decks planned to this shed, Rob.

They two man crew arrived at 8:30 and finished up before 1:30. We're happy with our purchase. Should have opted for a larger window though...it would look better........too late though.
