Today I finished the two bench tops, cutting off the excess and securing them to the bench frame. This went well. Spent some time working on the relay wiring for the vent system. I hung the shutter but also had to cut 2 2x4's for framing the opening in a little more. The shutter was too small or the opening was too big depending on your point of view. Got it all done then found the shutter motor doesn't work. Boo! Joy called this morning. We chatted over how Joe and Christa are doing and the snow today. Her husband had to go to work at 4:30 am to cover the icy roads. Our backyard was half dusted, especially in the woods. The bare ground was not touched. I worked on carrying more of the tree crowns to the brush pile. The ground is wet because previously this morning it was sleet covered. Carried what I could before needing some more chain saw cutting which I'll defer to another day. Dinner was bean burgers and cheesecake for desert.
