The Out Building

I came home from work yesterday to find that Scott had started taking down the out building. This has been a dirty and gross project. We did find some fun things behind the old dog house that had been build in the building. On the shelves there was a box of white tiles which are still in good shape and some left over plaster casts of stone that we think were from behind our gas wood stove in our living room. The rest of the things we found were mice and the remnants of their homes. YUCK! So far Scott has the front wall and the roof off and the interior stuff torn out. We are going to try and save some of the 2x4's for other projects.

We used the winch on the 4wheeler to pull out some of the small trees and brush around the building for better access. Worked pretty well. Adin was my helper for the winch controls. The back yard is looking so much better already.

Tomorrow we are going to have a tree service come in and take down a few trees that are close to the house and garage so we don't have to worry about them falling on the buildings. Then Scott and I will cut up the trees and move the wood. Once that is all done we are going to grind up the stumps and keep working on the landscaping and my prep of my Lily bed. I'm so excited to get that Lily bed worked up and moved when it gets a bit warmer so they are out of the way for the Vegetable Garden installation.

After lunch I'm going to head out and try and get a couple more gate posts that are cemented in the ground dug up. That is if the weather stays dry.
