Woodshed Project - moving forward finally

Sunday, 24 March 2013:
For several weeks now I've been trying to continue work on a small but much needed wood shed, but haven't been so fortunate due mostly to inclimate weather.  I know you might be thinking, "is it wise to build a woodshed in the middle of Winter?"  And I would agree with you that the timing is a bit off.  But the sad state of wet wood has made it rather difficult to burn in the wood burning stove.  And since the stove is my only source of heat I thought it be wise to make the additional effort to dig out the 6'+ of snow, level a clay area of soil that has a small stream running under it, and build a platform that would house a 6'x8' shed.  Well after the most recent storm the progress continued this morning and all afternoon.  It is not entirely complete but the difference is certainly noticeable.  Who knows, perhaps another snow storm or two remains before the season is completely done with!
