Well, that was a working bee, and what a 4 day weekend it was. Bring it in close and let’s go over what’s been achieved:
- A very ugly pair of storerooms have been emptied, joined, cleaned, refloored, and is ready to be prepped, painted, carpeted and occupied. Woohoo!
- We had 70+yo Sonia out from Albury helping in the garden all day Sunday, and so that’s been refreshed and garlic is being planted this very minute.
- Some tree tidy-up occurred. That’s about all I should say.
- The shed, of course, you want to hear about the shed. No trusses on I’m afraid, which was the goal. But without extra high lifting gear, I’m stoked that a 10m heavy steel beam supporting two big heavy sliding doors is on. Feel free to ask how we used a tip truck to put it up on the posts.
- Cos it’s a working bee, we ate like healthy kings and sang plenty and were inspired by worships about the schools of the prophets in Bible times. No time to tell of the plaster and guttering installed, hothouse improved, loading compost and retaining wall steel, plus other odds and ends. And the nature strip is on its way from machete jungle to managed lawn. We even found a hidden set of concrete steps in there, that’s how pristine it was.
Thanks for reading. Let us know if you want to join us for the next working bee. They’re fabulous, especially if you can handle a few puns. Thanks to 3 extra visitors for a super Sunday and the Big 4 for 2.5 days’ hard work. Bring on the next one.
