Chazd's (Charles Dowdell's) News Burps

We are back from Vacation. This time to the farm in NY and back. The land swap with my neighbor is complete. I now have three entrances to the farm property. I am getting someone to put in the driveway on the most recent aquisition. It was a lot of driving. I trailered a boat north and another boat south for some new friends. Boat trafficing we call it. We stopped in Washington DC (with a boat on a trailer) to see my Aunt and Sister. It was a good visit.

I bought a 1-piece shower stall for the guest bath in this old brick house. Normally a one piece fiberglass stall of this size is for new construction only --before walls go up. I thought I might be clever in getting a 36 in x 48 in 1-piece bath stall into a bathroom measuring 54 in x 92 in. The window opening (with sashes and trim out is 36 and 1/2 inches wide). Of course it had to be rotated inside for installation. I am not sure if it was cleverness, a challenge, or needless extra effort. I hope the next remodeler enjoys this post. It made it. Barely. Only, opening the bathroom doors inside is what made it possible. My neighbor came over to help.
