20261026 - I woke up when L got home, which means I didn't get all the things I wanted to get done this morning done. L made us some sandwiches while I packed things up in her car to take up to the Farm. We got on the road and got up to the Farm. Hazel went with us and when we got there she just ran and ran and ran and had the time of her life getting dirty. Jumping in the tank to clean off, she had a great day. Leonard & Gabe Dolce showed up and we looked at the wall that we want to cover and decided what the best course of action was. Leonard stayed with me and helped me get the wall down that was hanging towards the milkhouse and we got it down without touching the milkhouse at all. It was a miracle! I then got the chainsaw out and cut the posts free from the wall and dragged them out of the barn and then started taking the walls apart so we had boards to help stabilize the old barn. L&GmaW worked int he Farmhouse. Mike Woods showed up. It was nice to see him. We got caught up a little bit and then we headed into the farmhouse to have a birthday dinner from Chinatown. Poor GpaW made two trips to Chinatown as they only gave him half the order but it was a good meal and a great day!

Some people started showing up: Casey Jordan, Steve Weilend, John Clay, Bill McLean, Joe Plessner, D, J Scott & Colin Sampson, Ken Eichman, Brad Roser. We got to work on Doc's project, removed the old steps, cleaned up all the trash, started building a frame, got things leveled and squared up and everybody had little things to do. We made great progress. I never dreamed we'd make it that far. Started at 9 in the morning, finished about at dark, so about 7:00. John Clay bought lunch for everybody. It was a very very nice day. Got a lot done. L up the lake with her girlfriends
