Damon's Projects

For those of you who don't know Damon... there are ALWAYS projects to be done. These projects can range from make a snowplow/mower/bucket for the Rhino, tearing out and remodling the bathroom or in this case... 'just moving the garden shed'... I wanted to posted some pictures of his lastest project he started and finished all in a days work.
We have been talking about moving the garden shed because it is a stupid location - right in the middle of the yard. The one problem was this really large stump - which D informed me that we would rent a stump grinder to get rid of... he changed his mind. :)
He had to recruit some help... Erik got a quick lesson on driving the ASV, which we can all see he is feeling confident about, and the removing started...

However, that didn't work... so we resorted to other means of getting the stump out... Yep, he's wearing rubber boots with his shorts - I have friends who get pictures of their kids like this... anyone else with a husband with this much style?We ended up with a broken basement window... not sure if it was from the little chunks that came off the stump OR if it was from D's mowing job done earlier that day?? And who can resist posting this picture?? Who would have thought I would get one of Mark and Erik doing the SAME thing just days apart?? LOVE IT! He did get the shed moved and it looks great but decided the stump was a little too big to take care of on his own - so he cut off the top and covered it back up! This is just one of the thousands of reasons why I love Damon... such a handy person and innovative!

Great photos! Even better were all of the phone calls I got that night from Erik and you. Too funny!
PS - Erik's "peeing" hose picture is much more expressive than Mark's. It's still making me laugh and I've seen it several times now.
