I don't want to see winter until December 21, and even then it had only better be the one day. Sure is windy up here on the hill.

Scrap trailer and a vehicle inside the fence line, 2 vehicles behind the fence line and 2 more inside the garage John. Once the Overland is done it may go on the pad by the back door, have enough room for 4 vehicles inside the backyard.

This area is far enough away from the junkie zone that they stand out more and are easier to watch, its mostly home owners that live here and theres a few camera systems. It looks pretty secure and most of the back yards are pretty secure which is why I'm repairing my fences and gates. Right now my fences make this place look scuzzy but with some cleanup and minor upgrades it'll fit in nicely.

Decided to save some $ and am going to change one of the old truck propane tanks into a barrel wood stove and the other into a heat can.

I'll put 2 in the front, one for the front door and one to look down the street, there's a pair of trees up front that block the cameras site line. The infrared shows up as glare on anything thats to close to the camera, walls and trees can be a pita. Will have 2 cameras giving cross yard views in the back yard and will put one somewhere on the garage peak. I want to have one inside the garage also. Having a camera system helps to protect the whole neighborhood and gives the neighbors that false sense of security we all desire so much. LOL

Figuring out how I'm going to run the cable thru the house might be a pita and it'll take a day to pull it out of this place. It'll be a fair amount of work but it's just one of the things that will keep me busy in November. I put it in during January so at least this time it should be easier to deal with.

I'm here until October 31, I knew that it would take me a month to move so that was in the first months budget. It would've cost a small fortune to move everything in a few days

There won't be any job sites after this paver stone job is done until at least April or May and in November I'll be setting up a marketing program so that'll be indoor evening work with a trip to the auction on Wednesdays. Once the shop is set up there'll be an ad put on kijiji for doing metal work and light welding. It's time for me to make my living a home based program so that I can focus on this retirement plan of working on my projects and enjoying them when they're done. Time for customers to come to me and not myself chasing down customers. My brother Gary has that program going out of his shop and he makes it a point to only work from Mondays to Thursdays.
