New Shed
My wife received a 6 by 3 storage shed for Christmas as a family gift. While on Christmas vacation I dug a 1'+ deep whole in our sloped back yard, set cinder blocks into the whole, leveled the earth then put in a layer of sand. My wife and son leveled the sand and put in paver stones.
Today my mother and father stopped by to help me build the shed. My dad is extremely talented when it comes to this sort of project. We pulled up the paver stones and did an extra hour or two of work getting them more level. My wife and son did an excellent job, but with some expert guidance from my dad we were able to get improve upon the foundation a bit.
The shed went together rather quickly, in just a few hours.
During both phases of construction it was very wet and muddy. My boots look like I had walked through a swamp. Below are photos showing the completed shed. It looks crooked (but level) due to the planks of wood we have around it, but it's both straight with the fence and house and quite level.
I've also included pictures of the yard and deck which are covered in mud.
