I always check craigslist for ladders even if I can't afford one right now. I'm going to need a tall stepladder for working on the tunnel.
Thought this ad was funny. Only used a few times and his days of doing that high stuff are over. Something tells me he fell off of it or was just scared of it. A 12 foot ladder will work but I'll have to stand it up in the bed of the truck to put plastic on one end. Putting some remaining braces and gable vents in is doable from it sitting on the ground.
Maybe I'll get lucky and he'll still have it when I can afford it. CL ads are good for 45 days and the ad was placed 3 days ago which leaves 6 weeks, plus they can be renewed. If not, I'll find another eventually.
Ditto here. I'm down to a thin long-sleeve flannel shirt to keep my arms from getting scratched up. The clouds were slightly slow to clear, but once they did, digging a couple 3-4 ft. buckeye trees and 2 same ht. walnut trees out of gravely soil in planters (near a gravel driveway), and replanting them out on the east end of the property got, um, "warm". The dang squirrels just won't bury nuts where I want the trees! NWS says the low will be 66 deg. tonight - about as warm here as it was at noon. It's a great afternoon to get work in B4 the rain / storms predicted over the weekend, though. :-) Back to it...
