So what did you do today?

[huskihl]

Cleaning up this mess. My girlfriends house burnt last Thursday. The dryer started the fire. We are now burning all the wood to try and save her money. Those damn big dumpsters are expensive!!! Not much fun but something that has to be done so she can rebuild.

That's rough. Hope no one was injured.

Damn that's a bad deal. Hope it was at least insured.

No one was home at the time. Kids off to school, she was at work and I was taking our dog to the vet. I am glad everyone was safe!!

This is partial picture of what we did today. We cleaned off the sub floor and we cut out all the floor joist. We just piled them up inside the foundation and we are gonna burn them all tomorrow. It was a 1900 sq ft house. Today has really whooped my ass!!!! I will get another picture of the whole thing tomorrow.

Anything in particular I should address? High speed jet?

Don't want to make you feel dumb (like I was) but is the throttle cable hooked up? I "know a guy" that had a similar issue.

Yeah, it's hooked up. My personal favorite is to forget to reconnect the spark plug and then wear out my arm trying to start it...

This is what is left. We are waiting on a local scrap guy to come and cut up this metal frame. Then we will bury the rest of this.

Back in the mid 80s I was building the house I live in now and was the victim of arson. Luckily, I had not moved any personal stuff in … the electrical inspection was still 3 days away.

Insurance paid for the clean up, and replacement materials … but it was very depressing. I had spent so much time trying to finish it … often after work + dinner I would come over with a Coleman lantern and do a few hours of work.

When it came time to re build, I almost had trouble doing it … in the back of your head there is a fear it will be taken away again … it was tough to overcome, but luckily I got it done and I still live here.

Best of luck with it, I know what it is like!

Definitely hard to clean up. A million thoughts go through your head all the time while you're there. We will get through it, one day at a time.

Got warned about this fishing hole!
Been fishing this place since 1997...never had an issue.
Yet, yesterday my wife & I were warned by the Condo Security Guard that they've changed the rules.
You must now either reside there or be escorted by a resident while fishing or you're in danger of a hefty fine.
Well...I reckon the wheel runs off of everything sooner or later!
This place was hotbed for chunky bass, bream and water moccasins!
Later alligators & thanks fer the memories!!

Fished a lot of holes that had a sign
No litter
Limits enforced
Put 3.00 per person in the metal box.

Times have changed.

Yes, we are currently looking for the "right" layout. Just a simple, small, low maintenance house with open floorplan.
