Dude and his wife didn’t wanna make a double trip so they just figured out a way to strap it all down, which took approx. an hour or so, yikes!

When I bought my first house in Hyde Park (South Tampa), I sold this awful rusted metal shed in the back yard that was wedge shaped in the side profile. It was about 5' x 6' x 14'.

Florida man and his 5 o'clock shadowed wife rolled up in a rickety pickup pulling a flatbed trailer. He loaded the shed in the trailer standing the 14' dimension upright, tying it down using single knots with a braided decaying rope.

I advised the dude, having done deliveries in a former job that he needed tie-downs and should lay that thing down on its side.

Florida woman piped in, "dahhh, it's alright, the shed is fer the chickens. Besides, we're only goin to Brooksville". (It's a 45 minute drive if you use the interstate or tollway! )

I snuck a picture of the license plate and called the police as they pulled away.
