Good Week's Work!

We took a trip to the Austin area to do a bit of work for our little "home away from home" - 5th wheel trailer parked at our youngest son's house. Sunday traffic on I35 was a parking lot, bumper to bumper and slow. We also had the wind against us but in our big diesel truck, still got good mileage at 20+.

After we had gone too far to turn back we realized we had left our clothes - jeans & shirts at home - Goodwill here we come! Daughter-in-law gave me one pair of jeans and I had a couple pair of shorts. DH bought some jeans and is down to a 29" waist!! Wow, he is looking good!

DH figured out how to make "Tinkerbell", our GPS have a hissy fit. He missed a parking spot at a rest area and had to back up and she repeated "recalculate" over and over just as fast as she could!!

We took our daughter-in-law and grandson to the airport to meet up with our son who was in a training class in Virginia. They will have a vacation while returning home. We will dog sit with their dog Coco 'til they return. She has a great time with Daisy & Darlin'. 

 

We needed to put a water line and electricity to the kids building, a hookup for their hot tub when it is moved and put in an RV plug. We were not sure we would get it done because of the heat that first day. After that the mornings were cloudy but cool enough to work. You can see from DH's shirt, what our friend Alvin from Cross Plains, called stupid juice (sweat). :) 

 We rented a trencher to do most of the digging but still had some to do with a pick with all the rock. 

 Put in the electric wire inside conduit, added a breaker and a couple of junction boxes.

 Inspectors exhausted after hard work!

Trenches all covered up. 

 We put another breaker box in the building with breakers for the building light and wall plug and for the RV box. 

 

 

We got a lot done and visited with our oldest son and several meals with him as well this week. It was hard work but feel good about what all we accomplished.
