I had a haircut this morning, so Jim and I loaded up all the things we had to donate to Salvation Army in my car before I left.  The donation center is north of us and probably close to a half hour away.  I get there only to see this... sigh.  I'll try again early tomorrow before seeing my mom.

Jim met with our insurance agent this morning to go over a few things with him.

After lunch, we headed outside to work on the shed.  Jim did a little tweaking of the first upper siding piece and got it up in place...

Fastening in place...

This next piece will be crazy to cut and try to fit in between all the flashing pieces.  Doing lots of measuring...

And marking...

Jim got some beginning cuts marked...

Putting it up to check fit...

It took quite a few trials to get a fit that Jim was happy with.  Then, pre-drilling...

He had to take the side J-channel off to get the piece into place, then had to slide it back on...

Starting to attach...

Cutting the little piece at the end...

Putting it up in place...

Big accomplishment to get this crazy piece up into place - and it looks great!

When Jim first went up to the shed site, there was a little fawn near the excavator.  Jim was able to get close and it never moved...

It looked back over at him, but didn't appear to be afraid at all...

Once I got up to the site, the fawn was still hanging out near the edge of the wood.  We were still able to get close and it didn't move.  Not sure where the mom was, but it sure was cute.
