The post whore thread.

I think I'm cranky today. Sorry.

I'll go elsewhere. Ta!

Was camping years ago near Flaming Gorge.
A family with 6 small children pulled into the camp ground.
Each child, including the youngest around 7 years old, had a job assignment.
Two tents were erected, a fire laid, extra firewood gathered, a Coleman Stove and Stand, Dish washing stand, Cook box, and seating all set up.
Mom and Dad sat in folding camp chairs, never said a word, and just watched the whole process. The oldest child, girl, about 13-14 years old, directed traffic.
No crying, some excited chatter from the kids during the process, and a lot of laughter.
I was amazed.

Just a little pre-planning, organization, and dedicated troops.

That sounds amazing.

Nice, glad to hear that there are kids like this today

Deja vu.

There were two squirrels in my maple tree...

You know I took this picture in anticipation of me bitching about driving for 3.5 hours only to have it be raining when I had to get up onto this roof today. But it really wasn't that bad.

Is the blue and yellow pole your ladder?

I like that picture

Mrs bo calls that "minions on a mission" and sometimes gets a little offended when #1 politely asks her to have a seat because she is kinda in the way and mucking up the works.

Fixing or repairing someone else's shitty shed construction sucks though. I have two that will most likely end up in a roll off and do it right instead.
