I hope to continue with more posts soon - of more than just the shed. I’ve been trying all summer to keep the blog up to date on the projects around here, but it has been impossible.

I take it you all are probably pretty close to finished. Family projects like these - including the mistakes, mishaps, and miracles - will be long remembered. I cannot wait to see the shed!

It's also neat to remember Uncle Alan working with us. Thank you again Michael for helping to orchestrate a project like this one. Yes, it was a memorable time Dad.

To be honest, I enjoy looking back on this project more than I did looking forward to it. It's the time spent with you, Donald, and others that will last long after the shed itself is dust. Dad Great post Michael and great memories!

That trip to Indianapolis must have been when Mom and Dad picked me up and brought me home from the Training Center. You all sure filled me in on the details well after our return, though. I was astounded to see our backyard transformed so! And I have continued to be astounded at each new development on our "newest project" - it sure is progressing rapidly! Praise the Lord.

I remember asking Him for five specific miracles. I counted four in your report (Mr. Cox being free, doing the work that afternoon and having the right type of block, then the carpet layers rescheduling) plus at least four other ways that God worked evidently but more simply. Wasn't it a fifth miracle that He gave Dad the days off even though so much was going on for him at work at that time? Those were the longest days of the year and had some of the best memories of the year: in addition to leveling, digging and wheelborrowing gravel I remember staining siding with Jonathan and David, handing out flyers for America's Providential Founding, and holding the ropes on the tree we cut down--they all happened at that time. Thanks for recording the highlights of what God was doing Michael! About an hour ago I memorized the verse which says "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." It was incredible to witness the shed becoming possible. I'll look forward to seeing more pictures of the shed and barn as they are finished. What a year. That’s for sure.
