Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Gordon B. Hinckley
It is Sunday. The mosquitos are starting to arrive. For me, that means for a while outside work gets done in the hot sun or during the wind. The biggest task is to get my rear deck covered and finished.
All I have to do is:
- Cut rafters to final configuration on table saw. After I find and learn how to use the taper jig I bought two years ago.
- Put up boards on the trailer side for rafters.
- Cut old tin away with hand shears
- screw rafters to support beam
- cut strips to hold down plastic clear tarp. after finding wood for that. I needed 100 feet of strips.
- stretch out clear tarp cover the center of the deck
- Put up all the strips and pray for no wind and hot day (mosquitoes)
- finish angles on deck. find boards to cover decking on angles. Plane (hope the new-gen will run the plane) then cut on table saw if required.
- This should be one. clean shop enough to cut and process all the wood I need.
- Moove two extremely heavy windows to the rear of the house.
- Frame windows into deck. Carefully cut traps around windows so I don’t lose the view
- find a way to screen in the angles and add a door
- Move my old dump find rocker out there with end table have a coffee.
- Move all my plants out there.
The great news, stuff is starting to grow my Rhubarb is up.
If only I knew of somebody that could make a decent pie
My on sale tree I bought ten years . I go it cheap because it was almost dead.
The bad news so are the thistles that were tarped with a black tarp for 4 years.
They just won’t die
