I got Wood this Morning

This morning I pulled into the parking lot at work and the first thing I noticed was the blonde standing next to a delivery truck.  She was tall, thin, and stunningly beautiful.  Her long blonde hair blowing in the cool morning breeze. I stood there for a moment, dumbstruck by this beautiful creature.  She looked my way and waved.  My day was now complete but shortly it would get even better.

She looked back at the delivery truck to finish the task at hand.  Her melodic voice directing her workers, giving them direction on how to unload the cargo from the truck and where to place it upon removal.  Crate after crate began to exit the truck and be delivered to the store room of the antique store next door.  As the truck continued to be emptied she looked over her shoulder and smiled at me.  Not wanting to look even more like an idiot for just standing there I walked into work to start my day.

After making sure that all was well in the kitchen I stepped outside to see what was happening at the antique store.  By that point all of the everything had been unloaded from the delivery truck and all that was left were empty delivery crates.  Not small wooden boxes or pallets but large, study, wooden masterpieces perfect for creating raised beds.

The beautiful blonde was no where to be found but I had struck gold none the less.  I asked the delivery guys what they were going to do with the now empty crates and was told they were going to be thrown away.  They didn't look very happy about having to load the empty crates back onto the truck and then find a place to dispose of them so I told the guys I would make their day.  I would take the crates off of their hands because I had a use for them.  They were happy to oblige, jumped into the truck and drove away.

What a day; a beautiful blonde, free wood, and raised beds without having to do any work.  Now I just have to order the 7 yards soil to fill the beds.
