I am excited because I figure this woodshed roof will be a great place for a couple of big flowering vines or climbing Roses.  Jim is excited because he&#8217;ll have space for the lawnmower and won&#8217;t have to move four hundred of my garden related items to get it in and out of its space as is the case now.<\/p>\n<p>On the other side of the gardens&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenhopeessences.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/07\/100_4068.jpg\" height=\"512\" width=\"384\" border=\"1\" hspace=\"4\" vspace=\"4\" alt=\"100_4068.JPG\" title=\"100_4068.JPG\" \/><br \/>\nBen has begun to get his test grapes from the pots where we have been growing them the last year into the ground.  He&#8217;s building the needed post and wire structures for the grapes to be trained on as he goes, so it is taking awhile to do.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenhopeessences.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/07\/100_4070.jpg\" height=\"512\" width=\"384\" border=\"1\" hspace=\"4\" vspace=\"4\" alt=\"100_4070.JPG\" title=\"100_4070.JPG\" \/><br \/>\nMeanwhile, this project fervor rubbed off on me and I went to the barn overhang to make more of a mess on top of Jim&#8217;s lawnmower.  I hoped to assemble a few new beehives in case we get any swarms and need more hives.  I got a little fancy on myself ordering some new hive parts.<\/p>\n<p>Some of these parts, like these slatted bottom boards that give the bees more ventilation in the hive and makes them like their bottom hive body better, went together well.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenhopeessences.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/07\/100_4081.jpg\" height=\"384\" width=\"512\" border=\"1\" hspace=\"4\" vspace=\"4\" alt=\"100_4081.JPG\" title=\"100_4081.JPG\" \/><br \/>\nSome not so well.  Here below directions mentioning pieces I did not seem to have show off bent nails and wrecked wood from my many attempts to assemble these hive tops.  <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenhopeessences.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/07\/100_4080.jpg\" height=\"512\" width=\"384\" border=\"1\" hspace=\"4\" vspace=\"4\" alt=\"100_4080.JPG\" title=\"100_4080.JPG\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After several hours fighting with the directions and strangely mismatched pieces for the telescoping hive tops, I left project man and son to hold down the projects on the farm and beat a retreat to a chair in the garden to read a book.  May May even came off shift to join me.  She too had had enough of Sunday projects.<!--e7034b9905c20cace3d2f1c36a1ed054--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday afternoon and Project Man was busy&#8230;&#8230;.
