New spot....

Here we have another project, it was time to put this donated out building to use. It seems that daddy Dave needs a little more space on his side of the garage. The only way to achive this is to clean up his side, daddy Dave did contemplate on taking over momma Mandy's side but decided against this to keep the peace. With extra rental supplies adding clutter it would make sense to store them in this empty building untill they were needed(lumber, paint, doors etc). The trick was to back down in between the two allready positioned trailers and hook up to the building(all ready on a trailer) pull it back up the hill and unload all without getting stuck.

Well it didn't get off to a good start, matter of fact just as daddy Dave was backing in between the two trailers disaster struck. As he was backing up he was concentrating on one trailer and hit the other, stoping just short of a new dent but not without scratching his Mirror. Then it was relized he was stuck, with no way to move ether the truck or trailer it looked as if daddy Dave was domed. With no hope in going forward daddy Dave figured continuing to back up couldn't hurt so after a carefully calculated turn of the stearing wheel a disaster was avoided, but now there was no going back

For better or for worse daddy Dave was in it to win it. After backing up too the trailer it was quickly relized that daddy Dave was yet once again stuck, but after some brain storming daddy Dave had an idea. Back in his youth daddy and some of his buddy's used to do a little 4x4ing. One technique of which often came in hand was to let air out of the tires as to gain a wider tire print and gain more traction. This was done and the new trailer was hooked up as to add weight to the already spinning tires.

As you can see this combination of tricks worked well for daddy Dave and success was achieved with minimal slippage.

Here is the new desired spot for the out building.

And here it is in its new home, the unloading of the building was just as exciting and dramatic as the retrieving it from the back yard. Daddy Dave received a helping hand( big Nate) and sucess was again achived, next up a couple repairs need to be made and then filling it up with rental supplies.
