Being a Handyman is never predictable. This morning I got a call to Hassett Designs on the courthouse square in Auburn. A deer had just crashed into a plate glass window while the property owner was standing 20' away.

Lucy always enjoys riding along in my Bobcat when she can. Last Thursday she went with me to Markle as I drilled some post holes for a woodshed. I can different jobs with my Bobcat from drilling holes to clearing brush to spreading dirt and gravel. Reach out to me if I can help you get your projects done

I added a new entry on my list of things I've done today. I removed this little guy from the stairwell this afternoon. He's headed to Ft. Wayne this evening to a lady that will care for him over winter until its warm enough to be released.

Wanted to share pictures of a bedroom remodel I completed recently.
I added shiplap to the whole wall, a storage closet with barn doors & built a fireplace facade. Most of the wood on the barn doors & the fireplace came from my customers family homestead. It was definitely a fun project to do

This the season to plant grass seed! I planted 2 different yards yesterday in Noble & Dekalb county. Thanks to Hixson Gravel of Garrett for delivering a load of beautiful topsoil to Kendallville for me. Let me know if I can make your yard beautiful for you. The front yard I planted in Kendallville was a callback from a customer that I planted their back yard last year. Gotta love repeat customers!

I was blessed with the opportunity to spend last week with a great group of guys from church framing up this building at an orphanage in San Lucas, Guatemala! Seeing the conditions there make me appreciate all my blessings that I often take for granted.
The weather sure was warmer than Indiana. But I'm back home now......& back to work.
