I've been on a learning curve this past weekend, and I decided that I would put together a video (without music) that I could upload to YouTube, and try out the tip I read in a Group here on The Hill. The tool that I learned about is online, and it creates embedded code that can be copied and pasted on a website or blog. That sounds like fun. Here is the link:

I posted a music video on my page, and I also wanted to try a personal video, so here I am.
The Garden Shed is in our yard, and was my hubby's winter project the year I became a one-handed typist. The 'boxer' break of my dominant hand required a lot of physio, so we were stuck at home.
We had visited a Garden Center and Farm Antique Collection in northern California, and one display of several Garden Sheds, constructed with old barn wood, and resembling one-seater or two-seater outhouses, caught our attention. Cute idea, we thought, and would create a lot of conversation and smiles from our visitors at home!
When we arrived home, it was discovered that our septic tank was frozen solid because cold weather had arrived when we were away. We should have arranged to have someone pile snow over our septic tank, but that didn't happen. The Septic Service truck made three service calls to get our system up and running again.
During a coffee break around our kitchen table, we heard one of the guys ask, "On days like this, where is the outhouse when we really need it?" It caused an outbreak of laughter. I caught my hubby's eye, and recognized the 'look'! We both had the same thought, and that was the beginning of the winter project. We haven't had any emergency since the construction, but we are prepared! In the meantime, we've had a lot of fun.
By the way, the "kid" stuck in the hole, is to slow down anyone who thinks the facility is for everyday use.
And did I mention the "Fart Machine"? If you don't know what I'm referring to, post your question, and I'll explain!
