The Project is coming along

Well, I found my camera. Here are some pictures of the project that I am working on. This is the “Alamo Forward.” I have now put two days of work into it and it is finally beginning to look like something. It took me a days worth of work to get the deck done and now I have put up the frame work for 4 of the 5 walls. I have till this weekend to get it semi-finished. I do not think that I will get all the things done because I still do not have all of the electrical supplies for it. I will, however, have it ready for the cookout that is going to happen this weekend. There are several things I need to do for that, but, nothing that is too difficult. The hardest thing is going to be the roof. I am still not sure how I am going to get that put together and make it all work. I guess I will come up with something once I get to that point. It would be nice to have an actual set of blueprints to go by instead of just a few people's thoughts and ideas that I had to implement into the concept. Not to mention that the design has changed no less than 4 times since I began the build. I just hope it does not change again. Or, at least, not the parts that are already complete. I would hate to have to tear it down again.

I finally got my truck back from the shop. It was in for a few days for its simi-annual service. It still does not have a back window, but, that is coming soon. Now, all I have to do is find a stereo system and some speakers for it. One thing at a time, as I always say. Even though I never listen to myself on that one, since I always have at least 5 projects in the works at a time. LOL Any way, I am happy to say that I am still doing my job and loving it. I guess the bosses are happy too, since I have not been fired yet, despite the fact that I have stepped on a few toes in the process of getting my job done. And the toes I stepped on were all MUCH higher on the food chain than I am. It seems that I am good at pissing off Captains and Majors and am getting pretty good at pissing off Lieutenant Colonels too now.
