progress on the shop has been steady but slow.  a one man crew (me) isnt very speedy.  i have most of the rest of the wiring done....a zillion outlets, two 100a subpanels, wiring for the mancave including kitchen and drinking fountain, washer dryer, on demand hot water heater, utility sink, the kitchen cabinets ordered and almost here (tons of bracing done for them on the walls), etc.   and all the plumbing finished for the above things and the shower with two heads.  

today fedex freight delivered the Port a Cool 3600 Hurricane.  it was boxed up incredibly well and was sitting in a thick plastic pallet that was 12 inches high.  we cut it apart tonite and darlene, a friend of ours and my daughter and i huffed and puffed and got it out of the box.  

shipping weight was 367 pounds.  i plugged it in and immediately knew why they called it the Hurricane.  it started pretty smoothly pushing it self across the floor.  we had to grab it to keep it from scooting across the garage...ha.  it holds almost 70 gallons of water so it will get weighed down alot with 500 pounds of water in it.  

it is bigger than i had thought even though i had seen pictures of it.  as you can see from darlene and michele standing in front of it.  

so much to do and so little time.  good thing i dont have a job....ha
