Kitty WampusShed
My oldest son, Rusty, a carpenter by former trade and massive inclination, has agreed to help me on the Vortex. We put a new roof on the shed. Kind of looks like a Hobbit House Roof, but that is through NO fault of his! The walls were bowing out, the roof line looked like the back of an aged horse, but we perservered. We tried! We did, we tried to bring the walls back in line, using a huge strap that is used for securing trucker loads, but all it did was threaten to rip the studs out of the side walls when it was cinched up. We were smart enough to know when to quit. Some walls are just gonna be what they are gonna be.
Now it has a nice new metal roof. With Rusty's expertise, it was finished quickly. However, I almost slid off, got kind of stuck on top while sawing off a tree branch for "the sake of safety", I just couldn't get my aged legs to bend in the right way. But somehow I managed, swearing to use more common sense next time.
The roof looks kind of funny. All slopey, and skewhaw and all? But you know what? It will be waterproof and it's better to have a kittywampus shed than no shed at all.
