Originally posted on 2021-05-09 Mostly. The wood is done, now we just need to cover it with the ice and water shield. Today feels like we finally finished the major project of moving the garage, even though in reality there is still much to do. The decking for the roof is finally completed, including allContinue reading “We’ve Finished the Roof!!”

Continuation of the Garage Roof
Originally posted on 2021-05-02 Still working on putting the roof back on the garage, but we made some good progress this weekend. Would’ve made a bit more, but Saturday was cut short due to snow and hail. Apparently, Mother Nature hasn’t got the memo that it’s spring. During the week we got a delivery ofContinue reading “Continuation of the Garage Roof”
Connecting Two Roofs
Originally posted on 2021-04-25 We were trying to finish building the roof of the garage this week, but again the weather didn’t cooperate. In February when we needed it to be cold to move the garage over the ice rink we had 10+ degree Celsius weather. Now that we need it warm it’s 0 degreesContinue reading “Connecting Two Roofs”
Putting the Roof Back On
Originally posted on 2021-04-18 Or at least starting to. This week we got the trusses back up on the garage in the new location. It was surprisingly easy with only two people, but I didn’t do most of it to be fair. Like always he did most of the lifting, and placing, and etc. IContinue reading “Putting the Roof Back On”
Moving The Garage
Originally posted on 2021-04-11 This week we saw a lot of progress as we got the walls of the garage moved to their new home. It also saw the weather get warm enough for the dog and the little one to venture into the lake. (Personally, I think they’re nuts.) Last week was full ofContinue reading “Moving The Garage”
Preparing to Move The Garage
Originally posted on 2021-04-05 Spring is upon us. The weather is fairly warm and the sun is now out longer. With the ice rink plan a no-go, we’re preparing to take apart the garage and move it to its new home in pieces. A couple of posts ago I talked about us removing the roofContinue reading “Preparing to Move The Garage”
The Problem With Working
Originally posted on 2021-03-28 Obviously, we need to work right now, but this week it caused problems with getting things done. All weekend the weather has been cold and wet, making it very unpleasant to work in. This means we haven’t since we are not on a tight deadline for anything at the moment, butContinue reading “The Problem With Working”
Now Is Not The Time To Lose One’s Roof
Originally posted on 2021-03-21 Continuing plan B for moving the garage. Spring is here after a basically non-existent winter. Last week we took the singles off the roof. This week we got those taken to the dump right away, cleaned up some rocks that were in our way, and took off the roof sheeting. NextContinue reading “Now Is Not The Time To Lose One’s Roof”
On To Plan B
Originally posted on 2021-03-14 After all that time and effort to make the ice rink, Mother Nature decided that was a no-go. Things were going well after waiting so long for it to be cold enough for a long enough period. The rink was built and we spent the last weekend in February moving theContinue reading “On To Plan B”
Water, Water, Everywhere
Originally posted on 2021-02-14 Building an ice rink of sorts to move the garage over to the shop is what’s on the agenda right now. As previously mentioned, in order to move the garage over to the shop we plan to flood the area between the two and push the garage over the ice. AfterContinue reading “Water, Water, Everywhere”
