they came, they sawed...

Gma and Gpa B arrived on the 5th and spent the next week helping get projects accomplished around our humble abode. It was a very productive week!

My favorite project was building a new bridge across the small ravine (it's about 4 ft deep) that cuts through our property. The old bridge was rickety, rotting and not aligned with our back gate. The new bridge is wider, very stable and now gives us a straight shot back into our woods. Dad and I haven't gotten to work on a project together for a while -- I had a great time!

Adding planks to the new base frame


Ripping out the old bridge


One satisfied builder!
