This evening, a tractor-owning neighbour smoothed out my ‘gravel’ pile. He is as frustrated as I am that I got a mix of dirt and stone rather than proper gravel. It’ll be a better surface for the RV than the sod, but just barely. At any rate, I can at least park Miranda on the property once again! Yay for helpful neighbours! I’ll probably get pavers or something along those lines to put under Miranda’s tires.

- boys and their toys 🙂

- Making good progress!

- Nearly done.

- Meanwhile, I cleared branches and raked leaves. I need to get the pallets out of there to bring in the buildings, but they’re super heavy. So either I’m waiting to know how the grainery mover is going to access the property so I can move them out of the way only once or, if I can move Miranda back before the buildings arrive, I’ll simply move the pallets into place as a boardwalk, like I did last year.

- As good as it gets! It’ll dry out and pack down if I give it a few days.
Looking good! Are you going to be compensated for the poor quality stuff you got instead of what you ordered?
Caroline, the RM reduced by bill by almost 50%
Rae, that’s good to hear they did the right thing by reducing your bill. To bad they didn’t deliver the right product but at least you can add better stuff later if you need it.
Suggest you put a rubber mat between the tires and pavers. I’ve heard that tires setting on any pavement type will deteriorate faster. Looks like things are going along nicely.
Pleinguy, yes, that’s what I plan to do on top of the pavers. Not that I care much about these tires anymore, but no sense killing them any faster. 😀
Rae,
I would have posted this to your Facebook posting BUT I don’t do Facebook.
I have fought the battle with Windows 8 on a new Toshiba for almost a year now. I’m certainly not any expert and you probably will do a fine job in helping the garden gnome.
Some advise. Most problems with Windows 8 have been solved by someone and the solution can be found by searching the Internet. That has been my source for Help.
The Start Up issue is ONLY a problem for people that have been using Windows 7 for so long that they refuse to learn a different way to turn on their computer. I found the Start routine a bit strange but it was easily fixed by doing some Google Searches, same thing with Shut Down.
Good Luck. If I can help in any way please contact me via email.

Ed, thank you for your comment! The gentleman mentioned that he couldn’t even start up his computer, which I thought was weird. Now, I know it’s something I should research ahead of time.
