A Busy Day on Stauffer
Today was the day of installation of our basement windows. Dennis needed to head to Mankato for an appointment and I welcomed the two-man crew. I tried to catch a camera shot when I knew I would not be in the way. They were in the patio porch having a good old fashioned lunch so this was my chance. At this time of the afternoon there is mortar being mixed and the area around the windows is being made “nice” inside and out. The Watson boys moved the central AC for the fellows. In days of old whoever thought about where the best place was for an AC, if not right in front of a window. Dah!
Dennis is now home and we are happy that even with the rain, the long awaited job will be finished at the end of today. I am so not thinking beyond this work of today. Well . . . that thought will go only so long and I’ll be down in the sewing room with rulers, graph paper and doing a “what if” for a floor plan. They have been extremely careful with the mess of the work and I know that I will be doing the Lena type cleaning first and foremost. The first thing the fellows did was put down a mat to cover the entry floor and the steps as we have had a half of an inch plus of rain today off and on.
