The Oafing Shed is going up!

I'm not sure if I told you yet why it's called an oafing shed, but I will now.  When I first decided to buy the oafing shed, I texted my friend Maggie and told her I was buying an oafing shed for the llamas/sheep/cow.  It was supposed to be Loafing shed, not Oafing shed... but my big fingers and tiny cell phone buttons sometimes don't get along, so it's an Oafing Shed (which we thought was hysterical, btw).  ;)

So Roger finally got his hands on a post hole digger (that works) and he came over with his wife, Brandi, yesterday afternoon and dug holes for the Oafing Shed.

 


 So now we have post holes, and if the quikcrete in the bottom is set up, hopefully by the end of today there will be framing done! :)

 I love this huge pretty yellow tree. :)

Brian finally got all the pieces to finish his shop woodstove.  He bought one of those two barrel stoves already put together from his friend Joe but it needed a few pipe pieces to finish it up.  He was so excited to take this last piece up on top of the shop to finish putting it together.  

 Brian. On a ladder.  Eek!

The woodstove. It actually heats up our 30x50 shop pretty well.  That'll be good for working on cars that break down in the winter, which is when cars usually like to break down. ;)

On the pottery front, I'm crankin' out pots as fast as I can for the upcoming Art on the Prairie.  Today is Plate Day.  I've got a few ideas for new decorations that I'm going to try out.  It's cold and windy today... a perfect day to stay inside and make pots. :)

YES! Cold and windy, good day to stay in and make pots and fire a warm kiln :) I always love seeing the pretty landscape around your house.
