14 Jun 2025 - Job Site Tours & Camping with Michelle

 

What a fantastic day here in the Milwaukee area!  Today we were taken on a tour of properties our grandson Joe has worked on,  He is a carpenter  and showed us some of the craftsmanship he and his team exhibit.  These properties are on a completely different planet than we are from the standpoint of cost. The pictures here will not adequately show the enormity or complexity of the work.

The added barndominium and connecting structure

Massive structures!

Just a small one he has worked on!

I've got about a hundred more picture s but the bottom line is the projects Joe is working on are absolutely amazing.  These are multi-million dollar houses and our grandson is involved with construction and remodeling them.  The detail and complexity is beyond description.  

After our tour we headed back to the campground and Keith & Michelle joined us bringing their Alliance RV out to the campground also.  Once they were settled we joined them and enjoyed some bourbon tasting followed by grilling some steaks, mushrooms and onions!  The steaks melted in your mouth!  The grandsons fired up the campfire and we had a great time playing bags and telling stories.  

We are so thankful for these times!  Tomorrow we will gather for a breakfast and then head to a festival in Milwaukee.
