Onward with the guest bed



Every creative endeavor is fraught with unexpected turns--some fortunate, others baffling.  But Mike is irrepressible in his optimism!

When we got the barn wood on the outside, the bed was too heavy for me to lift and lower.  The pistons were not strong enough to pull that much weight.  So today, we went to Harbor Freight and got a winch and he's installing it today.

My style and his are so different.  When things go wrong, I want to quit and take a nap; he's determined to fix it.  After building numerous houses and barns and cars, he knows tools and materials and fixes inside out--and his solution is actually much better than the original design.
