April in the desert?

What a weekend. The average temperature in my back yard was 95 degrees! It was 110 degrees in the sun and 98 in the shade when I checked it around lunch time.

I spent most of this weekend finishing the shed. It was slow going because of the heat. I did learn one cool thing… If you need to get roofing tar off of a utility knife, cut up some cardboard boxes with it. It was sparkling clean when I was done.

So I finished painting the shed, stained the doors, built the garden caddy and stained it. I had to cut off a few nails inside the shed for safety reasons. I caulked up some of the gaps inside the shed as well. I will do some final touch ups next sunday after everything has had a while to dry.

I have uploaded some pictures to the gallery.

Next weekend will be spent moving dirt and installing the last run of sprinklers. Anyone that wants to come help feel free to show up.
