Never to be outdone by anyone, Steve put the pier in today.
Afterall, it is the first day of Spring . . . gray, windy, snow flurries and barely 35 degrees! He definitely beat everyone else. The rest of Lake Tippecanoe is still covered in ice from shore to shore.
As I watched from my cozy living room, I had to admit that even the thought of a boat ride, much less skiing, did not appeal to me at all . . .
Nope! I did not help except to lift the last pier section into place. Otherwise, Steve put the pier in all by himself. The only other assistance he had was Rachel who served as his driver.
Here are pieces of the "skeleton."
Rachel is actually an AWESOME driver. She's only 9, but she handles the JEEP and trailer like a pro. It's amazing to watch her skillfully weave between all the trees and other obstacles in the yard.
I slaved away in the kitchen while he battled the elements and rewarded him for his good deeds. (I even think I'll renew his contract again in July!)
I'm impressed...with Rae's driving that is. I guess Dad did a job as well.
It a-piers you're all put out with noplace to go!
;-)
Great Job! Rae Rae is going to regret she is So good!
