The Original Ranch, Lakewood, NM - Bench

Friday, July 6, 2012

The Original Ranch, Lakewood, New Mexico 66 degrees and mostly sunny to 90 degrees. It is feeling cooler after the rain yesterday. On my way into Carlsbad today we drove into rain about five miles from the ranch and were in and out of showers the rest of the trip. After the rain the temperature stayed under eighty degrees.

Handrail and kick board

Richard and I finished setting the posts for the ramp handrail and the top board. We need more wood to complete the handrail. We then built a bench for the deck although we did not have the carriage bolts for the legs we used screws as temporary fasteners.

Bench

After lunch we drove into Carlsbad Lowes for the ramp handrail wood and bench carriage bolts we need and called it a work day.

At four o’clock Bonnie and I went to happy hour.
