19 June 2015
Sonny arrived promptly
at 7 (no Ian today). In two hours we
removed the Bedroom #1 window header and associated framing, then reinstalled
the whole shootin’ works 18″ further south so that the window will be properly
aligned underneath the Sun Room window.
By lunchtime both guest bedroom windows were installed. Not a bad morning’s work for two old
guys! After lunch we tried to herniate ourselves
while moving the Anderson 5068 French door unit from the Garage into the Sun
Room so that we could visualize how that unit will look next to the majestic
Sun Room windows. One word answer: puny. After taking many pictures to send off to
Chree and Sean, Sonny and I spent the rest of the afternoon putting the frieze
boards on the Sauna building, then encasing with KOMA® the warped 4
x 6 post that holds up the southwest corner.
Just as Sonny and I were finishing our post-workday liquid refreshments,
Jimmy Ploof stopped by to talk about septic system installation logistics and
schedule. Aided by even more liquid
refreshments, Jimmy and I spent an enjoyable hour chatting… and even made some
meaningful decisions. Jimmy will be back
here on the 29th to start work and expects the septic system
installation to take around a week.
