A warm week, at last!


Thawing ground; minivan stuck in mud Saturday - 4 people to push out

Looked dryer Sunday, but not good enough; stuck in mud - nobody to push, but hauled buckets of gravel to get out

Learned lesson - Monday hauled shingles in back pack, 200 yards from Marmary, 2 bundles at a time

Tuesday - hauled shingles from Marmary

Wed - smartened up - got the Little Tykes wagon with the big plastic wheels, hauled 3 bundles at at time (!)

Thursday - Little Tykes saves the day again

80% finished with the shingles


(Yes, a whole week and I haven't finished a tiny 300 square foot roof? Well, I had planned to take most of the week off, but it turned out to be the busiest week at work that I've had in 20 years at this job. So I had to squeeze in a couple of hours each day while putting in 10 hours a day at work. Bad timing - arggghh!)
