Weekend #1

The closing is done, the locks are changed, so let the rehab begin! This was our first weekend of working on the "new" house, and the yard is where we started the clean-up.



The two old trailers parked in the yard held tools, movie projectors, typewriters, transistor radios, model planes and boats, and many, many pairs of high heeled shoes in their original boxes. We cleaned out the trailers and then sawed them up for disposal. In addition to several obvious heaps of junk, many relics and oddities lay half buried near trees and shrubs. In one corner of the driveway we found at least 5 or 6 engine blocks, 8 or 9 ammo boxes, rusty wheels, tools, chairs, lamps, and assorted metal objects.

The find of the day: a grenade launcher!
