Lots of Projects

There are lots of items that need to be done pretty much simultaneously to get the job done. 

We have some young men from the neighborhood helping remove the dreaded lath and plaster. They're doing a good job so far. 

The outside walls needed to be braced before the roof sections are removed tomorrow. That's going to be a big change! (Notice how I still haven't taken down the curtains. They add a nice touch to the bare walls and piles of debris, don't you think? I'm pretty sure I may try to leave them up until they absolutely have to come down.) 

I decided that I would install the temporary power pole. How hard could it be, right?!? 

I wish I had a picture of when I was on the front of the loader at the top of the pole. 

 

For just figuring it out as we go, it seems to have turned out well. Now if we actually have power and no one gets electrocuted we'll count it as a success.

 

I had my great workers assisting again.  They are always eager and helpful! Couldn't have gotten it done without them.
