Moving building old fashion way

78º and rain just passed through La Feria at 5:45 pm Sunday.



Ever think about how the big stones were moved when the Egyptians built the pyramids?  The three guys moved this shed probably a hundred yards from one RV lot out to the street, up the street and back over grass to back of another lot in 95º hot direct sunshine this noon.  Don't think the Egyptians used PVC pipe to roll on, but imagine the logs would have served.
This was brutal, but slowly it was moved.
Storage shed in final position - yet to be leveled. 
Cut a 4' x 8' plywood board for a shelf.

New top shelf holds all the window/door insulation until
next spring when they will go back up.

Sisters Maxine & Judy from North West Ohio got in
today and  stopped by for a short visit.
Pat and Lois Sumner got here yesterday with their 5th wheel and transferred things over to their permanent place today and put the 5th wheel in storage.

GROANER’S CORNER:((  A husband and wife came for counseling after 15 years of marriage.When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a passionately painful tirade listing every problem they had ever had in the 15 years they had been married.  She went on and on and on: neglect, lack of intimacy,emptiness, loneliness, feeling unloved and unlovable, an entire laundry list of unmet needs she had endured over the course of their marriage.
Finally, after allowing this to go on for a sufficient length of time, the therapist got up, walked around the desk and, after asking the wife to stand, embraced and kissed her passionately.
The woman shut up and quietly sat down as though in a daze.  The therapist turned to the husband and said, "This is what your wife needs at least three times a week Can you do this?"
The husband thought for a moment and replied,.. "Well, I can drop her off here on Mondays and Wednesdays, but on Friday's I go fishing!

Be good, stay well, and keep in touch, Lynn
