The October Project Has Begun!

Our October project is building our Storage Shed. So far Tim has done all of the work on it with George helping him at times. Tim first had to dig out some of the hill so that the shed would fit in the area that it is going to be located. The shed will be used for storage but will also house our washer and dryer and freezer. So it will be right next to the RV. Tim did all the digging by hand using a pick axe and a shovel. Now that the space has been made he has started to put the floor frame together and then he decided to build a sub floor to give the shed more support and to provide a strong base for the appliances that wil be in the shed. We chose to build a metal storage shed due to cost and the space we could have in the shed. Yesterday Tim and George got the base floor built and seeing the floor makes it real as to how big the shed will be. I could put my Crafty Cottage inside the storage shed. We chose a barn roof for headroom and looks. Tim also read that we can buy an "attic kit" for the shed so we will be ordering that so we will have even more storage space. This week will be devoted to building the rest of the shed. The goal is to finish it up by the week end so we can go down to Jacksonville to clean out our storage unit down there next week. While in the Jacksonville area we also look forward to visiting family and friends. Check back for the progress of the October Project - the storage shed!
