Structural Engineering 101

August 4, 2008 2 Comments

I spent this weekend at the cabin, alone with the 4 boys. Rich had too much work to do at the office, so he stayed home. I don’t like going without him, but I had to take a bunch of our camping gear back up there. Also, I wanted to see if there was any damage from Tuesday’s earthquake.

As we drove up the dirt road and the cabin came into view, I said: “Well, it looks like the cabin is still standing.”

To which Grant replied: “The cabin’s not standing! It don’t have foots.”

True. It don’t.
