He's baaaaaack......

Well, the boys made it back from SD at 2 AM. Not surprising, considering that when our son heads for home--he flat out heads for home! :D

While they were out there, they got the basement wall shored up--which turned out to be a much bigger job than anticipated. But at least now we don't have to worry about the house falling into the basement (which was Plan A when we bought the place, before we decided it'd be so cute fixed up!)

We also have a First Class furnace installation, now. Totally professional--ducting in all the right places and all the right amounts and set up to add AC to, if we ever want to. Our kid sure does know his Craft!

All that work, and do you think the pair of them could remember a simple thing like taking even ONE picture of Jared with the house???? All I asked for was ONE LOUSY PICTURE on his phone!!!! :( They got pics of the work they did! Men!

So, if I understand it right, the next plan is to gather up the dogs and gear and head back out West, while our son jumps head first into finding a decent job. It looks like his old job has just dried up and blown away.... Keith won't be getting a paying job any time soon. There aren't many road jobs going on in the mud...and some of the mud is several feet below the water level right now. :( So we can sit here watching the unemployment and tax refund dwindle away or go back out and put a ceiling in the house. The supplies are out there--might as well "get-er-done"!
