Hanging out
This past week end I was hanging with Barry and Jereme , we was working on a house that had a little hail damage. This was a first for us that we didn't have a ladder that would reach the peek of the house. Our ladder completely extended and a 30 mph wind presented a small problem. So we called it quits and went to Hooters to regroup. After borrowing a ladder and coming back the next day when the wind was a manageable 20 mph we continued on. Now we can get on the first level of the roof but still can't reach the trim we go to plan 2. Put a 10 foot step ladder on the first roof to get to the second roof. Now on the very bottom and the very top of the first roof Barry could hold the trim for me to nail. In the middle he would push the trim up with a broom and I would hang over the edge of the roof and nail the trim on. Jereme was kind enough to take a picture when he had the trim formed and sit back and enjoyed the show. We got-er-done , but this was the first and last time for a house this high.
After we got done Barry and I went to Nate and Jenny's to help install a 200 pound mail box that Nate made. The box was made of 3/16 thick steel that Nate welded together and the post was a 4 inch pipe with a 1/4 inch wall. Nate dug a nearly 3 foot hole to put this thing in , but as heavy as it was it nearly dug its own hole. DO NOT HIT THIS With A BALL BAT! Here we see Nate covering the concrete with dirt after the cement truck left. If a tornado comes git in the mail box.

Nate should paint that mail box to look like it's made of wood.Then see if anybody takes a swing at it,and then sit back and laugh.
