Hi there! Four of us put together a used aluminum ramp for an older woman who broke her ankle. The ramp was well built, sectional and originally constructed on site by the company that makes the ramp. The woman's son was the fourth person to own the ramp. Previous owners had jury rigged sections, used different sized hardware and there were no directions. After several hours we had a 30 foot ramp.

I liked the sound of walking on it because it was just like walking on a boat dock.
If I wasn't fishing in this all day rain,I'd be home doing something stupid.

Since it's still raining here on the Gulf Coast & I haven't been able to give Jimmy any of my $ this year :lol: ,
we went to Lulu's for dinner & drinks. We sat at the bar as we were initially only gonna have a drink or 2 & an app & then move on elsewhere for dinner. Well the drinks were really good but the bartenders were excellent so we decided to stay for dinner. Very good choice!

Still praying the sun joins us tomorrow...

I've spent the last couple of days sorting through 15 years of accumulation in the shed and putting stuff in storage.

Apparently when you sell a house you have to make it look like a sparsely furnished house that no one lives in. Pffft. Mrs Rabz and the agents were less-than-impressed when I explain just what a load bollocks that is - especially in the current market full of panic buyers.

I was told the current plan is to remove the chests of drawers from the main bedroom to make it look bigger, so I tipped all my clothes into a pile and said Nah that makes the room look smaller and messier....

Of course all of the stuff put in storage will need to be brought back to the house so it can be packed (again) and transported interstate.

None of this makes any sense.

I guess it's the equivalent of moving from Washington Dc to Houston (in distance not culture :) )
