Same house.......... The LLC has just started the remodel now. We took over management last Feb and have got rid of 3 deadbeat renters so far.

The last management cost the LLC over $15,000 in lost rent. We have kicked out 3 of the squaters and are now back in the black.

That doesn't sound very good... financially speaking.

Good morning Oregon FTE gang and friends.

Morning Don.

Have you worked up the gumption to see what the weather is like outside?

We had a bit of wind last night... I'm guessing 30-40 mph peak gusts and rain. It's calm now and not raining for the time being.

At least that part of the weather cooperated with your desires.

You going to work on your new toy today?

I've got some more framing and gate building to do out at the farm. And one of their dog runs has turned into a muddy mess since one of their dogs is on a mission to get to China by tunneling. Time to put down some cattle panel and pea gavel.

No toy today...... I've got to finish up the rental so the new lady can move in today.

Nothing major, just some grouting on some tiles I replaced and a final cleaning. Hope to get done right after lunch. If we do, we'll go to the shop and finish tearing down the mill. I want to hot tank another tank full of parts. We hope to start painting on Monday.
