Thank you. We where just talking about the timing of when we got Covid, and there is a certain relief in having had it and being past it. Also knowing what it's like and how it affected each of us gave us is a sort of piece of mind from trying to deal with the unknown before getting it. If I was to pick the best time to be sick, we nailed it!!! :)

I got the window out, the log sawed and the door put in the same day. Glad that job is over!

Is there finish trim yet left to do? That header board with the little in-fill piece at the upper left looks kinda wonky...

Yes, i still need finish trim. Too hard to anticipate exactly what I would need ahead of time.

Mr. Fuller The news is full of weathermen talking of never before heat and dryness. in South West areas. also floods and flooding in Ariz.
Remember the temp from Phoenix toward the Colorado River. when putting in the 34-inch pipeline it cooled down to 110 in the evenings.
Trust all is well and house building completed for a while.
What is the next project in the plans?

Did the slip[ lines work as planned or by now G-kids have gone on to other adventures.
were having what I call ideal weather .85 to 90 daytime and '70s at night rains in the afternoon.

We hit 99 a couple days up here but the temps have been bearable, especially with the evenings cooling off.

I had the 4 boys the last week of June and the first week of July. They are now 14,12,10 and 8. They enjoyed the usual zipline and the quads, as well as BB guns. Also this year I hid a half dozen ammo cans full of goodies and gave the coordinates for some geocaching. They loved it. I also got a couple of water balloon launchers. That was a big hit!

Currently I’m finishing up the rebar in the railing.

Next project? Maybe I’ll start on a partially sunken greenhouse.

For infection I would go to the health food store and purchase some charcoal. T a wet paper towel twice
the size of the sore on your foot and be very careful
putting the charcoal on the wet paper towel as you
sneeze the whole room will be covered its so light.
Just put a thin layer on the paper towel very carefully
Then fold edges over and tape tightly to sore, change
every 12 hours or sooner.

When I have trouble peeing I mix 4 oz water 5 tablespoons
pure maple syrup and 1 teaspoon of baking soda and
drink it next I start taking zinc, selenium for about a week
no problem. Been doing this for over 30 years so far
works for me.

About a month ago I started on a new project. My neighbor brought over his backhoe and dug out this hole for me.
