Bulkhead work

I still had a couple of small things to do on the bulkhead project.

I needed to put one more piece of sheet metal at the end of this.

And I needed to fill in this hole with sheet metal.

I cut this piece of sheet metal into the pieces I needed and screwed and wired them in.

Shelves

The next thing I did was to put some shelves in this shed. I had some redwood boards, so cut them to length and screwed them in.

Now I have more shelves to put stuff which will help keep things organized a bit.

Chair  hopping

Then I spent some time chair hopping around the yard with the chickens.

The chickens like to stand on these logs for some reason.

As the day cooled off, the chickens gathered here before they headed to their roost.

Rocks

The last thing I did today, before it got dark was to haul another load of rocks to this spot.

One load is enough to tire me out.

Nice day.

Repair work

I needed to finish off this repair under the bridge. The water has been washing out the small rocks in this spot. The wire wasn’t tacked down yet, so I pulled it back to fill in the void with rocks.

Rocks

I loaded half a wheel barrel full of rocks and stuffed them into the void.

Then I put the wire back on with staples and wire so that job is done.

It was trying to rain real light. But not enough to get one wet, so up into the hills I went to do some exploring.

But first I stopped at my cousin’s place to see about fixing up this road that is eroding and is too steep. I think I can put it around the other side of this tree if I trim some limbs off the backside.

I had a place I wanted to check out down this road to extend a trail in a steep part so I took off down the road.

But just before I got to the place, I ran into these downed trees, so I turned around to find another way to get there, which meant I had to go all the way back to get around to the next road.

Guerneville

I stopped here for a bit at the Guerneville overlook.

And then continued on up to our break area at the top.

Some clouds in the sky, but no rain so I wasn’t going to get wet today.

I made it to the trail I wanted to walk to see about connecting it to a road. I had to walk down this steep trail to get to the spot which meant I’d be walking back up the steep trail after I had a look at the spot.

I walked out the end of that trail to try and locate a road to hook it into, but the first try didn’t work out. I tried another way that would come out to this spot which might work.

I got good and tired out and had some good exercise.

Nice day.
