41 degrees/cloudy/calm

Pentoga Road

I worked Monday morning for three hours trying to “neatly” empty the garage of any small contents. How does one move several years worth of stuff neatly? In the end, I piled most into boxes where it either went into the pickup truck, the woodshed, the greenhouse, or the barn. 

The upright freezer is outside; plugged into an exterior socket, and the workbenches are in the front yard. Looks like Sanford and Son live here rather than Sargie and Tom.

The construction crew arrived at 11 as promised and immediately got to work. They  used a cement saw to cut the floating slab away from the walls. That took almost three hours. After, the slab was broken into large chunks and hauled out with a Bob Cat to be loaded into a dump truck.

Today will be spent adding fill and hopefully this afternoon, the cement truck will appear in the drive and a new garage floor will be poured.

A short one today. The concrete crew will arrive shortly and I’m running late.

After all, a man’s work is never done.

So are the tales from Pentoga Road…
