Lumber Troubles

So technically they were suppose to start framing Monday. Dad ordered the lumber early last week. When they didn't have it up here last Friday he canceled that order and placed one with another lumber company that assured him it would be there by Tuesday. Well it wasn't. Supposedly they had a blowout on their way from H.S. they finally got it there Wednesday. My brother and his friends were ready to come up Thursday morning but it was raining. They didn't want to drive the hour up here and get rained out. Completely understandable. So as of now, they will be up here Monday to start putting up the walls. 

We're having bad luck with material. The concrete truck broke down. The lumber truck had a blow out. What next?  

I picked out the front door, back living room doors, and the sliding door for the bedroom this week. Super excited that they have the blinds built in. I hate regular blinds on doors.

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

Dogwoods

Sunday I inventoried our Dogwood Trees. We have 24 total. Some are just small bushes. There are probably about 12 big trees. I marked them so that when we are clearing brush later we won't kill them. My hope is to clear out some around them so they can all grow into large trees. They are absolutely beautiful to look at!!! I want to get some more pictures, but I got Poison Ivy on my legs the other day so I'm staying out of the woods for now.
