Lee,

The cement was all moved by hand and using Teresa's car.  We picked up 
four rounds of eight forty pound bags.  For the lumber and equipment, we 
rented a pickup truck for two days.

I had been thinking of purchasing a truck now that the prices are dropping 
like a rock because so many people are trying to dump them due to high gas 
prices.  But I realized that even if I purchase a truck for 5 grand, and 
had to pay insurance on it, register it, and deal with having to move it 
because we only have on street parking, it just isn't worth it.  I can 
rent a truck for 20 bucks a day plus milage and some other fees.  So, 
basically I can rent a truck 100 times for the same amount of money as 
purchasing a truck.  It is slightly less convenient, but worth it.
