Made good progress on the roof... looks nice.

Nice to spend time with the crew and enjoyed eating chicken sitting by the fire.  :campfire:

The rain slammed us hard today.  With the roof not quite done we didn't notice a severe roof leak during a power outage.  We lost Lauren's laptop computer to a water leak.   :'(

We did get some good work prepping the area for the inside floor.
We ate hamburgers while lighting struck near by.   :_storm__by_clairebearer:

Thank you Russell, Kat, Whip and Menno for all of your help today.   :)

Too bad... try drying well with a hair dryer. Sometimes clean water can be dried out and things will work again.

Jim Johnson

The hair dryer idea is a good idea, but the water filtered through asphalt, dryed leaves, bat crap and insulation.  It was a very teak brown before it soaked everything.   :shithitsthefan:

what about Saturday?

How do say this?  Help..!   :help:

I need ten people who can be here by 9:00am this Saturday morning, July 28th, for what is going to be billed as "The Largest Cement Pour I've Ever Done".
Participants need rubber boots, which I will supply if you will give me your shoe size by Thursday night.
Be prepared to be dirty.
The project should only take about three hours, after which we will have a sumptuous meal.
As an additional entertainment highlight we will give Porc Manor's premier showing of  "Dr. Strange Love".     :happy1:

Wish I could attend, remember if any nosy bodies
show up, you could do a NY pour= 1 part body 9 parts cement.  ;D

We'll be there. :)

Calling all able bodies to help the Duke and Dutchess of Porc Manor get a proper concrete floor. Sir Jim will need to conserve strength for the most important task of putting a nice finish on the concrete. The thing with concrete is there will be a peak demand of effort, cause "concrete waits for no man".

Hey Jim... I was thinking about a longer chute for the concrete, do they offer that or should we build something? Should I bring our two wheel wheelbarrow?

I sent this out on NH porcs announce.  What do you think about a mess of burritos for lunch?

Also, if you're coming, it'd be helpful to let Jim know, so he can set his mind at ease that he'll have enough guys to do the job.
