The big move plus rain

Well the big move is finally here.  Kyla had some time off and came up to help her old man.  We had to align a couple of walls and nail on the hurricane ties to the trusses before we could actually move anything into the shop.

Just in case there is a hurricane

Important things first.

We cleared out the house first, all the furniture and boxes.  Haven't moved the cabinets yet but still a lot of junk.  Kyla used the wheelbarrow and I made use of our large hand truck. The ground was nice and dry from a good day of sun the day before. Once we had a good start on the house we decided to move the shelving in the garage which meant unloading them, hoisting the unit into place and then restocking them.  Then it started to pour.  Time for a hot drink and a movie.

One load at a time
Didn't take long to fill the shop up

Then our luck ran out and down it came again. It rained all night so that was the end of that. I'll have to do some cleaning and rearranging inside tomorrow.


I'll see if it dries up enough to get started on the fascia for the roof. Hoping to contact our roofer soon

  1. Nice hand truck. Looking forward to more of the plane story - did it come like that or are you responsible for all the pice parts?
