Was hard to do.
We’re on a job at work that’s wearing us( my 20 something helper and I) out. We had 200 20’ composite deck boards delivered. The donkey couldn’t get them very close.
We’re carrying them near 200 yards down a steep bluff line to the lower side of a big lake house.
My back and knees hurt.
After work last night I had to go get some quick Crete at the lumber yard. Luckily only 16 bags.
After that I had to load all my portable Blacksmith equipment as I’m scheduled to do demos for pioneer days with the sons of confederate veterans.
The anvil I carry is 175 lbs.
I couldn’t get it in the truck.
Loader tractor is apart. Had to ask nephew for help.
Sunday morning I’m pouring footers by hand for an addition to our house.
A little over 2 pallets of quick Crete.
I broke down and hired a couple helpers for that as well.
The weather has turned hot again.
Blacksmithing in a wool confederate uniform should be fun.
I’m feeling much more lively today.

Take it easy bud. Overdoing it will get you on a bad way in hurry.
