Tucson Spring Building - (Day 4)



3/25/13 (Monday)  -  weather: HOT



We need to fill up our propane tank, because we only have one tank, the other one was empty. First we stopped by the Tucson Library on Mission, which was the closest to our land. We went inside the library and it was a very small place, it only has three tables that have power outlet. Then we went across the street and check on the propane price, I went inside and asked a guy how much is the propane? He told me the price is $3.99/gallon. We then went back the same Circle K on E. 22nd and Alvernon street. This time the propane price was $3.04/gallon, it was cheaper than last time we were here (on winter 2012).

We went to Home Depot and compare the price with Lowe’s, but found the most the items were same price, expect the smart panel on Lowe’s was $19 and Home Depot was $15.99.(they are hardboard not OSB) We only bought the paint for wood protection for $5.94 and 2 bundle of stakes for leveling for $2.97/ea, because we want to buy the woods at the Lowe’s at 5% discount with Lowe’s card. Then we dropped by the Chickenuevo on W. Valencia Rd for lunch. After that we went to a timber yard near Polo Verde. But the wood is way too expensive for the special 18 ft long 4x4. He suggested using two 10 ft which I agreed since I have support in middle. We went to Lowe’s for the 4x4x10 ft  and 8 feet ladder, we went back home and we have left over chicken from Costco. We finished put the tarp on the metal frame.
