WOOD WORKIMG 101

The beginning after the fence was taken down which was an easy job.
It looks a lot messier than this believe me.

After a lot of hard work he has done a good job and will now rest for the day.

Dad is tried but seems happy and watching the hockey now

Leah just dropped by after being with Howard for four hours.  She had him standing up and doing a few exercises.  She is an amazing gal and she should be using these wonderful skills of hers.

I had a quiet day mainly because of a sick stomach which I get going to doctors.  To-morrow I will be fine.  I shouted encouraging words like: "Don't  you think you done enough now and maybe should rest?  Also told him he had done a great job!  A lot of hard work carrying around heavy bags of cement and lots of wood and several trips top the store to purchase the right things.  He will finish it up today and the clean up will take days!

Rick arrived in good time last night and is off  to  terrace today.  The first visitor to arrive for our fantastic weekend!

Great job Grandpa! that looks wonderful. I hope you all have a great time. and hope the weather cooperates. I am taking my dad to the Royal Alexander hospital tomorrow. I have not been back there since i was born! He is having a procedure done to help relieve his foot pain and to ease his heart. We are really hoping this is going to help. He is quite nervous and has to be there at 630am!
We need to be strong for each other and our selves.
Have a happy Thursday!
Cameron is enjoying his on job training. But says its over whelming all the things you learn and need to remember. He will be great at it, i have no doubt in my mind.

Now that is a strong looking fence. Nice work, Larry. Maybe you want to come and work for our Construction Business? Beth, you did a fabulous job documenting the work, with the pics and words.
I send good wishes to Shandel's Father in his procdure and hope it brings him some relief.
It sounds like you have family coming for some good times on the weekend...it is our son's birthday on Sunday...will plan something, with his girlfriend.
Love, Nancy

Dan was telling me at work today how Leah is going to be with Howard. I think it's wonderful that she has him up & moving around!
The fence looks great, Larry, but don't overdo it. It's not going to run away :)
Hope you both enjoy the rest of this lovely day!
