The Village People

Now we just need a cop, an army guy, an indian and a cowboy...we've got the construction worker part covered! If Holland's career as a stylist doesn't work out, she can get a job on a constrcution site. Her new obsession is using the caulk gun, and she's quite good at it! I have seamless baseboards and bath fixtures, compliments of my sister. We had to take a moment to pose with the infamous Camaro on our property, which has been sold and should be gone by the time we arrive this morning. Rock on!







We have made more progress, in the form of having a gas line long enough to hook up the stove in the back house kitchen, installed baseboards, a working bathroom sink, a shiny scrubbed tub with a new rubber cove base, 2 working garage doors and an empty garage with partially pressure-washed concrete.


Here we've got Larry Woodard, either installing baseboards behind the toilet, or throwing up. I think he's installing base. Thanks to Richelle for lending him to us for the day! The entire house has baseboards, and he's going to install the crown molding next weekend while they are both here to help us bang out the Main House!


And Ron hooked us up with a guy that helped Warren locate the buried gas line and hook that up into the kitchen from outside, via the ditch that was dug the previous day. Of course it rained like crazy during this job, so this guy really earned his money, it was a muddy mess out there.




Warren tightened up the sink in the bathroom, so we can now start washing our hands instead of using hand sanitizer all the time, so my skin we be happy. Like I said, no hand modeling in my future.





Holland also brought an assistant to help her caulk, this cute little Valentine Bear that her boyfriend Andrew shipped to her in NY while she was gone over the Valentine's holiday at Fashion Week. Awww.







Thanks to the helpers!
