Family

The power of family has always been my super power.  My grandfather and father, along with uncles, taught me that a family that works together can accomplish anything.

Couple of months ago, I had to change home owners insurance, because my company decided to leave Louisiana.  The new insurer told me that the old rotten deck in the back yard was a hazard and that I could either repair or demolish it.  A quick survey told me that demolish was my cheapest choice, and I had family that I could call.  We scheduled a Saturday, and my boys showed up.

A couple of weeks later, son-in-law had a retaining wall collapse under water load from a huge rainfall, and he called family.  Call family first.

Elder son thought it would be a good idea to set up the cameras, and recorded the events.  IN the case of the deck removal, from the time we took out a section of fence until we replaced the sectioon of fence, it was about three hours.

Here is the power of family with the proper equipment.  The mini-excavator belongs to second son, the Kubota tractor is technically mine, but the boys move it around from property to property.

Nothing beats the power of family.
