good visit with widow neighbor, she's holding it together pretty well.
She got home Friday afternoon after work, worried husband hadn't answered phone, they talked many times a day,
and found him in his easy chair, out, cold, and with their family dog curled up on his feet. And the family had known about possible heart issues for weeks, some family history, and they were told by doc that insurance didn't cover the test they asked for. One daughter is a nurse, they all feel guilty they didn't push him more and just pay for the test immediately themselves.

I bent her arm and got her to call an attorney she trusts to handle the estate. She had no idea what was involved and thought she had to go to court house.
I told her that was the best 1-2 grand she would ever spend to protect her interests since she is part owner in family farm, including multi-generational ownership.
She needs an attorney, even family does ugly stuff for money.

In middle of talking with her neck went into spasm and I had to get myself out of there and home to lie down. Came home and took a prednisone, will be ok in two or three hours. And I didn't do that much today...except for two trays of flowers, and some blueberry muffins.

Tomorrow my truck goes to body shop to get dings out, so I did make a trip to dump on way home since truck will be tied up for awhile. Truck only has 24k in five years, worth getting the dings fixed. I'll likely sell it after I sell the farm and stop hauling things in trailer. Then I'll get a smaller truck, maybe a used Ranger.
My trailer is only one ton anyway.

53 out now, 71 tomorrow, nice day, then rain and colder weather returning. Bit of a roller coaster, but that's normal.

Is that a cat I see on the well?

Drew, you’re a good friend and knowledgeable source for your neighbor

Three rows of purlins and 1 row rat track installed significantly stabilizing structure. The bracing back to cottage will hold it true and then we can finish the purlins, rat track, and corner bracing then hundreds more screws in the slip joints.

No new pics, just nothing that notable.

As for the roof metal, that is coming from guy I bought my house material from. 12 ft lengths and some custom cuts. I could have ordered from local building supply that makes own roofing but at 2x the cost.
