Day 2 at Henry’s.
Boy! my joints hurt this morning, I feel like an old wooden boat creaking with the incoming tide.
It was definitely colder today, the big lake had stormy waves and the wind blowing off from it chilled the bones.
I picked up where I left off. I had my list, but that became irrelevant when Henry wanted me to concentrate on the landing, not quite sure why, but I managed to work that in with my main plan.
I managed to get all the skirting nailed and filled.
It is strange, when the pieces are cut, they slide together perfectly, but the moment I fix them, a gap appears, it’s like I’m knocking the side of the building apart.
But that was a move forward, I will probably give my trip to John the wood’s a miss for this week, just to keep the momentum going, it is definitely going to be a six day or possibly seven to get everything finished.
