Making space

So we've demolished most of a fence and apparently some of it will be coming back. And now we have a big pile of concrete blocks all over the yard. Why not use them to create a surface under the shed, instead of the usual kinds of blocks people buy?

Oh, but I am getting ahead of myself. First the old shed needs to get out of the way so that takes Michel a day or so, emptying the shed, dismantling and bringing it to the Eco-Centre for recycling.

Now the yard is pretty much clear and he can begin mapping out the shed-to-be. There is some confusion about how large it can be based on unclear rules on the city by-law site but eventually he settles on the correct size, 8'x12'.

The planning is next, lots of debate about old vs. new materials, different ways of buying materials (Kijiji? Home Depot? Rona? Craigslist?), delivery options, prices, sizes ... google google shed shed and we eventually agree on some kind of design.
