Bob’s Barn: When life hands you a carport—but you really wanted a workshop
Nat with shed stuff |
Marcia Moston
I used to say the property we bought was “on the tracks”—the
lake homes to the right of us were mostly a mix of new and nice, some to the
left were tin and tacky. But after living here for the past six months, I’ve
had to repent of my uppity attitude toward people who live in homes that are
registered with the motor vehicle department. I still don’t appreciate those
whose yards are full of trash; there’s a difference between slovenly and
resourceful, but I’ve come to see that some of that yard stuff I looked upon as
trash is actually someone’s creative vision just waiting to take form.
