Morganton, 'eh? Ha! The stretch of road wasn't as bad as a hwy 60, that's for sure. The hills were smaller and curves were fewer, more spaced apart, but it was still quite a trek.



The video my wife shot was just of me knocking the blocks from under the shed. It's a whopping 32MB video. I thought abot posting it on YouTube but I'm on dialup & can't even get highspeed Internet service here (I'm sure you know about that). It was dark:30 by the time we got the shed loaded & stabilized & I never even thought about recording the trip.



The old tires is what helped stabilize the shed so well. I left them under the shed on that one side. If it hadn't been for them I think it would've easily slid off somewhere along the line.



I used to live on Aska Rd right at the Shallowford Bridge, from 1999 - 2001. Morganton is forever burned into my memory because I was in the convenience store there (center of town) when the OJ Simpson verdict was read. The store owner was watching it on TV and I'm sure you've got a good idea of what he had to say. Hahaha!!! I had seen him a few times before but didn't know him. I jokingly said, "I can't say nuthin', my wife is black." His jaw hit the floor and he just stood there looking at me, dumbfounded. I started laughing, told him I was jokin' but as I was walking out he was still speechless. Hahahaha!!!



Catch ya later!
