Epic Nightmare

 

John did it first. The only thing I can figure is that he turned them down, said, "No way."

I've told you about Certainteed before, the manufacturers of cement-board siding for houses. The stuff that is meant to withstand the weather, stored outside and shipped in waterproof cozys but still needs to be tarped?

They've got some discontinued product. A lot of discontinued product, and they're sending it to the landfill. I got a clear answer that they tried to sell it, but I still don't know if they tried to give it to Habitat for Humanity or anything.

So I go back and forth generally five times a day to haul a heavy, sometimes very heavy (overweight) load up a slippery slope to the top of Indiana. I don't know the elevation but what could Hoosier Hill have on this place. I can see the curve of the Earth up there.

And the wind blows, and it's muddy, and flatbedding generally sucks! Did I mention that it stinks?

So, it's all good. I've got pictures, of this and limestone too. You poor misused friends who read me.

I'll catch up.
