Posts from Hondo Duke Lane in thread „What Are YOU Doing This Weekend ?“

    So much for working on the storage shed. I am invited to a 45th wedding anniversary and see my partners for a business meeting. This will take much of the day. But will be worth it. Rather be outside working on storage shed. Oh, well. To make a buck, you must sacrifice.

    Cheers, :cool: Hondo

    Well, I have to work early in the mornings, but the rest of the day is for me. And I am not doing any yard work this weekend. I have been in the yard the last 6 weekends and I am not doing anything but watching Duke movies. And it is a great weekend to do nothing. The weather is great.

    I put a a retaining wall last year in my back yard with a patio. It has been a long process doing this with a shovel and hard back breaking work. I took some of the summer off last year because it was just too hot and went back to work in the fall before winter set in. Most of the delays during the fall was due to shorter days, and weekends full of football. And as most of you know, I am an Auburn grad and fan and watched my Tigers win the national championship (2010).

    I then sat out in the winter to go back to work in the spring. Well, in Alabama we don't always have much of a spring. We had one weekend where the temptress were in the upper 40's for the highs in one weekend with rain. The next weekend we went up to the upper 80's with high humidity. This is no joke. We had 90's for 123 days this year. I just can't handle the humidity like I use to, so I did nothing to complete this project.

    Anyway, to stay on topic, this weekend I will be finishing this project by cutting the caps to fit on top of the walls and say it is finally finish. With the exception of putting on the adhesive, which will be done next spring. This concludes this project just before Thanksgiving.
