Mr. Fix It!


Chuck has some kind of project to work on every time we go to the land. On top of building the lean-to in the garden area, he made much needed new steps to the TT. The old ones were still usable but not for every day use, so they got put at the back door to the TT where we didn't have any steps at all. At least now, IF we had to get out the back door fast, there are some kind of steps there to use. The new steps are much wider and easier to use. (and remember ....no power tools)
The roof to the front porch doesn't over lap to the roof to the TT, so when it rains, the porch and everything on it gets wet from the gap being open to the rain. Chuck thought he could fix the gap with a $3 piece of aluminum, but climbing onto the roof of the TT ( scary...I'll tell ya about that later) and messing with the aluminum, it didn't work. So, back to the drawing board for that project. I'm sure he will come up with something to use to fix it. ....he always does. Until the next trip to the TT.....the porch will just have to get wet and wet it has been. They have had a LOT of rain and tornado's all around them. Baseball size hail stones, last week. Sure hope our barn and TT haven't been damaged by it all. Maybe a trip to the land in our near future is in the cards :-)
