When we woke up to the pouring rain...we had a thought!
We went and got our breakfast at Tim Horton's and then we got started.
Emma, our fun neighbor was as crazy as us and was out there working too. She's awesome!
Today we decided that we would accomplish one thing...and Garrett was the man for the job.
He made me a beautiful shelf for our canned food and some supplies. Our car battery will sit on the top shelf and will power our house for the month. Bill will hook our lights up to it and we will charge it throughout the month with a solar panel.
He did a great job and when he finished building it I put cardboard down on the shelves and then covered them with material. His dad will be so proud.
Deanna and her family came out and brought lunch for us and Emma and her boy Joe came too.
It was fun to sit around the table in our "new" home and eat! Fred {Deanna's husband} was able to help Emma get some plastic up on their home and the family also helped some other ladies who's husbands are on the hike...what a nice family, they all have such a servants heart!
This is their youngest of four...he's a cutie!
My friend the dragonfly was back today...I knew he liked me!
Jake was on fire duty again, our goal is to have an oven that will get up to 350-400 and maintain it. Jake is able to get it up there and then he let's it cool to about 200, it helps dry the stove slowly. He also started building a chair...he thought he would get that finished tomorrow.
It was a rainy day that went by really fast, just as we were packing up to leave the sun came out. Tomorrow we are going to attempt to build a door. I hear that it's hard but we are up to the challenge.
