Spreading Out

Who knew an 8X10 storage shed could hold so many tools and treasures?  Worse yet, what does one find to fill two of them?  Ol' Abner's grand plan has changed many times in the last year and we are now in the process of moving things into the new playhouse.  It was designed to have two large doors positioned so that vehicles could be driven straight through.  That plan formed due to recognition that I do not drive backward with a trailer attached.  The driveway on the street behind was poured several weeks ago and it provides nice access...a block from the house!

I am really tired of this view!

The driveway from the front side awaits the forms and concrete to make the new garage fully accessible per our plan.  As you can see, this end is several feet above the yard surface so a fairly steep incline will be necessary.  Furthermore, many loads of fill will be required.  We have begun our own version of a landfill in front of the door.  Back to my original statement. Two storage sheds are exactly where the right side of the driveway must be.  All of the lawn tools, hardware and saws have been hauled by hand to the walk-in door on the side of the building or dragged up over the pile of landfill to drop in the portal.  I am sore and exhausted and Ol' Abner can barely breathe.  Tomorrow, we turn the process back over to the men with heavy equipment. The sheds will be moved and the hammering and dumping of dirt will commence. By the way, dirt is NOT cheap!
