The Shed

 

The back side view, don't know why I don't have a front view lol

 

 

 

 

 

one of the guys jammin with his air guitar lol

 

First thing I built was this bench,  a sheds not a shed until it has a work bench to put your beer on...

Just like a farms not a farm until you have some chickens in the yard :O)

 

hauling dirt in and leveling it to grade for some sand and then concrete.

 

 

 

Almost there....   just alittle farther and the dirt's done for half of the shed.

For those of you that don't know yet, this is going to be my house also.  its a 30 x 50 shed that I am going to divide in half. One end will be my house and the other half will be my work shop.  How convenient will it be to walk from my house directly into my work shop without going outside?  :O)  I have changed my mind many many times about what I should build for my house and this finally makes sense to me.  Sooo,  now you know :O)   

Welcome all :O)

This is the first post for the new Shed on my place :O)   Its going to be a 30x50x10 pole shed. 25 feet of it will be work shop, the other 25 feet will be my house.

I'm Home

  Sorry for the lag in the posts,  but yes I am home.  things didn't go as planned this year in my adventures of gold prospecting this year.  Had alot of fun and glad I went to colo again but its time to get busy with my place. 
  Got home and right off the bat I had to fix the water line that was busted.  Had to dig it out by hand but it wasn't that bad.  Nothing like having accessible water (without the leak)    It  has been hot here but not as bad as it had been this summer.  Thank goodness.   Got the tractor home and mowed the burnt up grass around the house site and the shed.  Been doing some scrounging and came up with some wood and power poles for the lean 2 that I am going to build onto the storage trailer shed.  I have also been rethinking my house situation,  have to let it be a surprise if I go with what I am thinking.
  anyway,  just a short note to say hi to you all and to let you know I was still alive and kicking :O)                be safe all  :O)

can you see it?

its there, right next to the Harley lol 

it's the red one.

Buena Vista Colorado.

Alittle over loaded maybe?   hundreds of sheds that the guy had found over the years with a few that he actually hunted too.

Fairplay or Forplay gary? lol

  Just sitting here in the fairplay Park Bar,  no I'm not drinking either :O)  just eating lunch and using their wifi.  I've been doing some sight seeing and went to a auction yesterday, in the middle of no where!!  said it was in como but it was south of Como out in the sticks alooooong ways :O)  rode the hondo there so it was a nice ride.  Didn't buy anything just mainly watched things sell, like any other auction, some things went cheap and other went really high.   
  The other day I introduced myself to some gold prospectors along the river here north of fairplay, at first they was not very friendly but they warmed up after a while.   They were working on their trommel and not having much luck at it.  I visited with them for a few hours while they tried anything and everything to fix it.  The boss took me over to a tub and said watch this.  He took a small pan and put about 2 cups of material out of the tub and panned it down just a little bit and there was more gold showing in it than I have found the intire time I have ever been out here prospecting.   it was amazing!!  hey only run about 800 ton of material a day through their machine so I don't feel so bad with the little bit that I/we have found :O)    It was really cool to see the operation up close.  I'm going back Monday to watch them actually run material. They even told me if I was around later in the week that I could watch them do the clean up.  So I will be around here for a while still lol 
  The weekend warriors are showing up at the bar today,  I'm speaking of the Harley riders.  its funny, I have the Honda parked out right in front and alot of them stand around and look at it and make comments about how tall it's stance is lol  Then they walk in and look around as if to see who is riding it.  Of course with my beard and tattoo on my arm they look at me and dismiss me as the rider. Guess i look to much like a Harley rider.   Some of them will actually ask the waitress who's bike it is and she points at me lol  its fun to see their faces and expressions.  
  Anyway,  just got done eating my chicken strips.  Going to be going for now.  Hope all is well and be safe :O)
