\"The<\/a>
The Last of the Tools<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Today was the day to clean out dad’s workshop in Soda Springs. My favorite brother Perry along with his wife Chris came over from Green River, my sister Eileen and her husband Phil came up from Sandy, and Nina and I drove over from Pocatello. We spent the day disposing in one way or another almost everything in the shop. Click on the picture for further details.<\/p>\n

While we were cleaning, Nina, Eileen, Chris, and Mother were gardening. We put one of the corner garden beds I made last year on her porch and the women stocked it with flowers, hung hummingbird, finch, and seed bird feeders, and prepared a great lunch on the BBQ grill.<\/p>\n

In late Summer 2008 we had a yard sale <\/a>to get rid of most of the tools in dad’s workshop. As the yard sale came to a close, dad went shopping in his own yard sale…. Then over the next several months before the stroke in January<\/a> put him in the hospital and then into the nursing home, I brought him a few times to Pocatello to go to Harbor Freight, his favorite store. He bought a few more tools, most of which he was never able to use. Some folks are going to be surprised when they go into Deseret Industries and find quite a selection of new or nearly new tools!<\/p>\n

Perry, Phil, and I had a good day … with lots of lifting. Perry brought his pickup truck which was invaluable getting everything handled. The shop now looks rather bare. Someday someone will buy the house and the shop will be one of the selling points. Some other dad will make some incredible stuff in that shop. It’ll be put to good use for years to come, I’m sure.<\/p>\n
