Yesterday I got to stand around in light drizzle while my son and some members of his BSA troop helped him with his Eagle Project. The hardest, most-time critical aspect is done now so we're happy! That meant hand-digging post holes below the frost line (42") in 5 separate locations (already approved and certified not to have hidden power lines, gas lines, water lines). But there was rock. Or lots of smaller rocks. Holes had to be dug before the threat of frost and no one is sure whether this Autumn will be mild or harsh.
Posts have already been cut and need to be set in concrete at the next work session which is next weekend. Hopefully, my husband will be able to supervise this time. Since he got stuck at work over this weekend, I had to take the dogs to the park early and they missed out on having playmates. All the dog park people did wave at me as they passed by our group of dirt-covered boys digging and shoveling.
Today I'm on the elliptical by 7:30 but I'm having trouble building up any speed. Which means I'm barely making distance or steps. But I get my sweaty 35 minutes done as well as both sets of pull-ups. My forearms aren't happy with the second set though. It's a struggle after the first dozen. The right shoulder feels okay so I'll try my normal Skull Crusher Rip Skull combo tomorrow and see how that goes...
