Jim was back plastering this morning...

Continuing down the wall.  Jim got all the coats done on this wall area and was able to put things back into their place for now.  He started pulling the machines on the west side away from the wall to work in that area next...

He started doing some measuring in anticipation of putting drywall around the window in the stairwell...

However, he got a call from UPS that they were going to deliver his new shaper this afternoon.  It's hard to get started on a project when you are listening for trucks or waiting for calls, so he did some grass cutting for awhile.

Now that's a UPS truck!

Taking the shaper off the truck...

 And making the way up the hill...

And into the carriage house...

However, when Jim was able to get a good luck at things, the pallet was crushed by the weight of the machine and/or dropped during the UPS shipping process...

 Trying to get boxes out of the inside of the machine...

 These boxes were damaged as well...

Thankfully, the only apparent damage to the machine was a scraped bottom decal and a broken part.  But of course it's always such a hassle to try and work issues with companies.  But we'll start that process tomorrow.
