Right where I was standing when I took the picture. I plan to start it soon. I'm still counting my pennies to see what I can afford.

I thought you were going to say same place as it's been, but I shoulda known you had one planned out your door, and a short walk

We are building a new field house at the school. After school my grandson came out and asked if we had something he could do.

The wisdom of youth

Killer Bee · 03-01-2023, 10:33 PM

that kid's talented and optimistic!

**GOPAPA** · 03-02-2023, 10:22 AM

I bet the other boys and girls in this school with your grandson sure wish they had a grandpa like you. I can see that in your family every one gets to learn equipment when young including you Larry ..Right?

It wasn't very safe when I was learning. I look back at some of the things that I survived and it was only by the Grace of God that I'm still here.

Glad you survived! I’m sure it was a steep learning curve

Is he wearing a seatbelt?

Yes.

Your new home looks large and I am sure it will be beautiful, Larry. Would you mind sharing any drawings of what you are building?

It was 3 years ago right now we were building our new house. We had an excellent contractor who made the process fun and pretty easy for us. I am guessing you have an excellent contractor too….

The contractor on our house is lazy and can't seem to make a decision.

I'm surprised he doesn't quit the way she talks to him sometimes. She has cut his pay in half several times.

That is one our most common exchanges.
I say "Well, you wanted me."
Her, "Funny, I can't remember that at all.".

Actually we get along pretty well. She has been my biggest supporter in my ventures. Scared sometimes, but supportive.

**special-K** · 03-10-2023, 09:29 PM

I figured you two got along well. So well you have to pretend to give each other a hard time to feel normal

Killer Bee · 03-11-2023, 09:26 PM

found this when I got in the truck to leave work

showed it to Mrs. Bee and all she asked is why didn't they leave a phone number

Because it was for the left rear tire and wheel, and they couldn't actually afford even that!
