    Yep. Rain delay for two days now. I think I have 4 solid days left of steady work on it.

    I'm only getting $.08 per lb. Wish I could get 12 cents
    There's nothing more fun and more effective than hitting something repeatedly with a sledgehammer

    You really need to find a new buyer. I pay $4.00 for car & Lt truck batteries - same as 0.12 - and I go to the seller to buy them.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    I was talking about the steel rates, not batteries

    4 down 2 to go Shooting for completion by the end of April

    A quick update from the project we've been on since January 4th 2011.

    We now have a track hoe operator helping us once we've stripped what we can from the shell. I have also begun to pick up tree work with a guy I met about a week ago. This is helping out tremendously.

    Here is a video update from the blog.

    Oh, btw, we are building a treehouse too.
