Update

I'm so absent minded about some things! I completely forgot about the trivia question that I posted a couple of weeks ago. Thanks KB for reminding me about it. The answer to the trivia question was slaves. Even though slave trade wasn't really abolished until 1865, Thomas Jefferson signed a bill abolishing the trade of slaves in 1808. Here is a link to read more about it - http://www1.american.edu/TED/slave.htm.

Now, hopefully I can remember to post another question AND the answer this week.

The garage is going slow right now. We've been putting up garage doors and trim around the outside. Thanks Ronnie, aka Angry, for coming out and helping last night! I have a feeling that you will be the next to move to the country and build a house! As soon as we finish closing in the garage, we plan to dig the foundation for the house. While the concrete is curing we will finish the electrical and such in the garage.

Here are some pictures from the last couple of days!


TJ "driving" his truck and "pulling" his boat and trailer. Give a kid a box and he will be content for hours!


TJ with life jacket and paddle. He was rowing down the lake fishing for catfish...


Shingles complete. Entry door and 1 garage door up.

Working on the ridge vent! Yes, those are spotlights on our heads so that we can see in the middle of the night!
