Day 818 Green new deal

4th November 2019

The shed door was a sad sight, it hung on with one hinge. I took it off and carried it into the garage to start work on its renovation.

We had driven to Menards to get the correct length timber, so everything was ready.

I eased off the old rotten frame, I was hoping to re-use the plywood backing. The door was in a pretty bad state, but with careful fitting of the new frame it could be saved.

Whilst the adhesive were curing, I swept up the leaves that had dared to fall on the grass I had swept a couple of days before.

A guy up the road was using a blower, someone else was sucking up the leaves with a ride on tractor.

There is nothing better than the good honest rake, these machines may be quicker but I don’t have to fill up with petrol every ten minutes. I am following Kelli’s example of non polluting, and the use of renewable energy. Well my energy is always renewed, once she feeds me.
