Dog House

Our youngest grandson has been wanting to build their new dog a dog house. 
So Pops spent an afternoon with him...

Pops is a stickler for plans....
Measuring...
Drilling nail pilot holes...
Hammering begins...



It's going together fast!
Almost there...
All in an afternoon!!!
Now we can take it home to shingle it and paint it!!
Pops just needs more days like this...now that he is retired!

  2. i love it that he's passing on his skills to the grandkids. what better way to learn than hands-on and with a loving guide and teacher.

  6. when i saw the title & the first picture of the boy, i thought, "oh no, he's in the dog house" (i.e. in trouble) so this could not have been better. funny how we sometimes jump to conclusions.

    wonderful grandpa....passing on his skills & his love. you captured the day well!!!

  8. Holy cow! I'm impressed. In fact, that would be an understatement. I couldn't build that if you gave me six months.

  9. I wondered if that was for Duke. I hope it's big enough. :)

    Great job and it's a beautiful house.
