Wow that tire took a pounding Larry.....lucky you stayed on the road with that. I have seen bulging, but never shredding like that.The Interesting trip - Why is it that every trip turns into an adventure . . . This was crazy ! ! !
Don't need my life to be more exciting, get plenty of that with every day stuff.
First, we'll start with the shop - got the fire stops and the cross board installed on the back wall . . .

My trip - was about an hour away where a guy closed down his shop and had an old 1920 bandsaw for sale
( actually 2 of them ) . . . And they will be coming to my shop - 1 to rebuild and keep, 1 to sell . . .
( you can see the table of the 2nd saw in the left of the picture . . . )

That means - time to start moving forward . . . by moving backwards . . . go figure . . .
Pull off the last 2 sections of roofing panels on this lean to section to work on the rear overhang, now that the back
wall has been framed up and is in place . . . and all the trimming . . .

By that, there is a lot of blocking that needs to be added to fill in the gaps . . . On the right - it's all filled in and
on the left . . . next in line for getting blocked in . . .

Plugging my way through the trimming and getting this section just about ready to put the roofing panels back !

calling for 80 degrees tomorrow . . . hope to make some progress on the shop . . .

It could be a secret time-travel portal to another galaxy.....So… you’re going to keep us guessing on that rounded part of your foundation? I’m still thinking… machine gun turret. Fireplace? Room to put your still? There’s no hole in the floor so it can’t be your outhouse. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.
