The 600 pound stove

The 64 thousand dollar question out here today is.. how are we gonna move the 600lb stove into the kitchen. It's 15-feet from the front store. It's still in the box. We've cut off the ties, but that's as far as we've gotten. The truth is the stove question is a metaphor for the countless lil' things still on our list.
Ya see, all the big stuff's done. We have an incredible pavillion. It's 30'x50, with windows on all sides and a magnificent front porch. We have the BIG HOUSE. It's three bedrooms and three baths to rival the Waldorf. And then, there's the lil' house that actually has more room than a room in the big house. And, don't forget the three fabulous wall tents. They're better outfitted than most hotels (full beds, complete baths, front porches.. etc). ALL DONE!
But then, there's the 600lb stove. There's also water to the tent showers. Don't forget the electric toilets, the flatware, the cookware, the glassware, the towels, the soap, the shampoo, the ice, the ????????????????. Geez, the list is endless.
Ahhhhhhhh.. so what. If you could've seen the clouds roll in this afternoon and the wind take a 20mph change in an instant with a slight drizzle tinkling the tin roof, you too would've said 600lbs, that's ain't no big thing.
