The End Of An Era

Well, today signaled an end of a time when falling through the kitchen and bathroom floors were possibilities. It was another huge effort to coordinate electricians, plumbers, and the Maxey demolition squad so by the end of the day we actually had more outlets, plumbing fixtures, and lights than we did before we started. The plumbers showed up at 7:15am and we began to tear out the old bathroom. They set the fixtures in the back while I tore out the bathroom making the septic connection more accessible. Mom was there to load every scrap on the trailer I could produce. They were able to put an inline well pump and pressure tank so we actually have pressurized water instead of the old spring houe pressure. After they had the new plumbing hooked up and turned on, I was finally able to patch the floor where the old sink was. The electricians came ater lunch and trimmed out the wiring in the back so we would have power to the pump, lights, outlets, and the ability to hook up the spankin' new laundry machines. Everyone is happy and from the looks of Maranda, a little worn out...Charley is there for her.
