These folks left us a bunch of wood...it's not usable for firewood, so I'm not sure what we're going to do with it!

Eventually, I'd like to insulate it and create studios (music and painting) for the family. I do the former, the wife and son do the latter.

I have a friend that works at a jail, and he snapped this outside the jail last night...the jail is between an industrial and residential area in a large city. He calls them trash pandas.

Thanks. I am Lumber Jim's step pappy. He is 45 and I am 63. You are talking about a tobacco barn. Many have been restored into someone's party house. A pack house is a large barn with a drive through the middle.

Weird? Not weird. I just think shits funny that others don't think is so funny. Besides I am the only normal person on the planet. Now if you will excuse me I have to shave the hair off the palm of my hand.

The first farm house with the pack house was built on a hill next to a swamp. Strange thing was we were never bothered with knats or mosquito. Hurricane Fran came by and a black bear slept in the ivy outback for a week. Everyone had a throw away cat threw them out here. It is Ok everybody needs an extra cat. Snakes was why we moved. I was mowing the grass and there was a curled up rattle snake dead with Goodyear tire tread permanently embedded where my wife parked the night before.

Went out to check our barn this morning...we got a hell of a deluge here in Kansas City last night. No flooding from the creek...but lots of cicadas hanging out.

captainhook455 · 09-01-2016, 07:14 PM

Helluva flood in Fla. Have to pray for them. Storm is coming our way. Right over the house. I am out in the country. Goodbye cantaloupes. We don't get the flood like in town. Build without checking the elevation. Reroute the creeks. I worry about some of the members I know who also live in the path of this storm. Pray for each other. Amen.
