I have the cover sort of on the instant garage. I have more to do before it is really secure. On some of their smaller buildings.. they have tubing along each bottom side.. and they tell you two tie to ropes onto one of the tubes.. toss them over the top and use that to pull the cover on. This bigger one.. no tubing.. nothing to tie rope to.. and they just tell you to put the cover on.. :?

thankfull I had that staging. :D

its kinda like reading a shop manual that says assemble parts inside transmission and install transmission... :lol: :lol: :lol:


exactly... :D

I kept hitting rocks. The last time It hooked on the edge of a rock.. it would not move.. so I turned harder.. and harder.. and I twisted the anchor.. I think it is 3/8's.. :o

The area is pretty sheltered.. so hopefully it won't go anyways.. :worship:

Ive thought about one of those things for someplace decent to park my boat under...I tarp the snot out of it right now..

I remember when I was building the house.. I was trying to figure out the best way to repair an certain area. So I called the company that did the engineering design. There were sort of hesitant at first.. hmm and hawing.. then they just told me.. that that part of it.. mine was the first.

oh.. cool.. ok.. so I just went ahead and did it. :D

well back to work I guess...

my boss is a slave driver...

Hopefully not, it's supposed to be windy and hot, from here, that means some idiot will be out setting a fire in the mountains.

good timing Kerry. Do you folks always get so much rain this time of year? Sounds like you've had a lot lately.

The rain is kinda hit or miss around here the last few years. This is a bit more than normal for August here, but not much more!
