Grampa Makes a Ramp for Hazie!

Here is the metal grating Lowell decided
would be best for weather.
Grampa found it and hauled it home.
12 foot lengths were not easy to fit
into the van but he did it.

The project took a lot of "noodling through"
as Jim calls it as mountains and driveways
and decks and most other construction is not plumb.

He had a helper with the project, Miss Julia!
I am hoping she helped him with the faux mohawk
too as I really hope he didn't come up with it on his own!

It was incredibly tedious cutting and filing off all
the end pieces to make it lie down properly.
And it was incredibly hot.

Jim never let's anything get in his way.

They made a huge mess but eventually
they got it all cleaned up!


The two twelve foot ramps are completely done now!
Jim, Lowell and Chris worked until after
midnight to finish last night. Jim loved having their help!

When Hazie wakes up she can try it out!
Chloe has already figured out that
this could make a great bike jump!
Hmmmm.....

I am very proud of your Grampa, he is an incredible worker and totally devoted to serving others. It is especially fun when it can be for some of the kids. Now he is helping Chris on their basement. Connor and Aynslee are coming over here for a late night of fun with their cousins!

Our family works together!
