A Little Warmer Today

For once the weather forecast was right on and we did have a warmer day with plenty of sunshine.  A good portion of the snow melted away and we are down to gravel on the driveway and all steps and walkways are nice and dry.  The only drawback to the day were the very strong winds.

The original plan for the day called for John to work with Matt helping him install some metal sheets on a lean-to roof.  With the strong wind, that job got put on hold as the guys didn't want to risk handling the metal sheets in the wind.  Hopefully they'll be able to get to that job tomorrow.

Since he didn't have to work with Matt, John got all the tile and other supplies we purchased yesterday unloaded and stored in the garage.  He then went to work assembling his new table saw and building a stand for it.

 Our old two car garage is now John's new

shop.  New table saw is the yellow piece of

machinery.

It's obvious the colder weather is here to stay, so I spent some time today putting the light-weight jackets away and getting out our heavier coats.  We will be heading to Texas in about six weeks, so I also started sorting through some of the things we'll want to take and setting them aside.
