April 25, 2016. Madison, Mississippi. More Progress.

I think that all the posts in the dock have been installed.  Ken went down to check yesterday and only one remained to be put in.    This evening early, they worked for four hours, so I think the posts are complete.  Compared to the installation of the posts, the rest will be a piece of cake.   Whooppee.  Soon the dock will be finished.

On Thursday, a tile man will repair the broken tile in the bathroom.  When the big window was being installed, they put it in from inside as the window weighed 500 pounds and they were working three stories high.   The leg of the scaffolding broke one of the tiles so the company who did the window work is having a tile person remove a tile from under the counter and replace the damaged tile.   We have been here exactly one month which is how long we have taken organizing the work.   But it is happening on Thursday.

As soon as the dock is finished, the light man will install the lights in the back yard.  The front looks great and now we can actually see when entering the house at night.   Soon our walk down to the dock will be lighted.  We hope it all is complete before we leave for Texas in early June.  Time does fly by.

When everything is done, we will have a celebration and the children can fish in the evening.  Ken has purchased life jackets for just that event.   We will invite our friends and their children to enjoy our backyard.  Progress indeed.
