Getting things done....

This old mailbox has stood the test of time. Because of the road construction on the highway in front of our house, all the mailboxes had to be relocated. This was too big to move so we brought it back home. We have no idea how old it is but the JH COOK tells us that it is pretty old. James H is the father of James C Cook or Grandpa Cook.
This stand was made by James C as a project celebrating the America's bi-centennial (200 yrs). Grandpa was really proud of it and it was very well built. It probably won't be put back in service as there will be new mailboxes put into place when the construction is done. Wood everywhere. Dalton helped me stack all the various woodpiles into one place. It turned out to be a lot of wood.

Well the old washhouse had a makeover. We tore it down a few years ago and with the help of many we now have a finished shed. Love it. The final step was the door. Doug persisted and got er done.

I love to get things done. Thanks everyone.
