Tiny house Homestead, Nature, Frugality & Freedom

T om found an awesome deal on a dog kennel that looks to have been run over by a forklift so needless to say it needed some re-squaring - lol! We backed up the truck and used the hitch and a cinder block as a vice to re-square then I tweaked each wall section into a single plane with blocks and body weight. His tenant assembled it in the back near the original box I built and I grabbed a few hundred feet of fencing and some posts from the bottom of the property for me & Tom to set the perimeter run with. He also had a stripped door panel I was able to throw some fence on to use as a gate. The rest is history...
