ANTICIPATION

Wow, a vacation. Working vacation but am looking forward to it. Sometime Sunday we will head for III, pick up some tools and the trailer and head for II. After we put the cement footings down to stop the cabin from settling, which it did, we found that the porch was still settling and pulling away from the cabin. So, we will prop up the porch roof, tear off the old porch and rebuild with pressure treated lumber. The old barn boards have been on there 20 or 30 years and really no sign of rotting, and if I can get them off without tearing them up, we may try to re-use them just for the ambiance. This will all be work, but fun work as we will have 5 days to complete this project. Will let you know later how this all worked out.
