Adventures building a shed

So, I inherited a nice shed from my father in law, and we have spent a few saturdays working on it. It started out as a cement pad I had poured in my yard, followed by the walls and some trusses. Today we had to fix one of the walls, put in the door, made a bazillion trips to Home Depot, bought all the roof stuff, and put up the board for the roof. We also put up the trim. Now all that is left is to put up the shingles. Woo hoo. Below are some pics of the progress.

apparently I can blog from my phone. Neato.

The Biggest Loser

So, my work is doing a Biggest Loser contest. It's teams of 4, and a few of us who could afford to lose a bit of weight have united as the "Anti-Twinkie Coalition".  The competition begins June 1st, and ends in the end of August. I look forward to using this competition as some motivation to lose some weight and get healthy again. I will keep my weight loss and competition updates in my weight loss blog. Wish me luck!!!

Vacation in Southern Utah - Day 1

So Amy and I decided on Tuesday that we were gonna come down to Zions for our 4 day weekend. We had taken some time off, but hadn't made any plans. On a whim, we decided to come down here for a warm weekend, and some hiking. We drove down today (Friday) and walked around Springdale, where we are staying, and had a bite to eat at the Burger Shack. Then we did some shopping, and are now just chillin' at the hotel. We did go down to the entrance of the park, and I snapped some pics. More to come after a full day in the park tomorrow.
