Last weekend I went with my father to go help my uncle Ray with some home repairs. He is trying to make a few changes before he sells his house and heads for the hills. I am a very outdoor person and active but all of my life I have avoided getting a labor job for a reason. When you see how tired a person gets after 20 years of hard labor you will realize it’s a smart choice. This doesn’t mean I can’t lend a hand when people need it.

We originally thought we were going to do some drywall patchwork but found out very quickly we would be doing much more! My father ended up patching an open area that used to house a two-story indoor palm tree. By the time he was done I am confident that two 400lb women could play jump rope on top of it without any problems.
