Vestry Graduate

Image
I am no longer part of the Vestry at Christ Church Norcross. I served my full term as the Buildings and Grounds liaison. It was three years. There were a lot of items to deal with over the years. But the effort wasn't the work. It was the responsibility and knowing that I wasn't doing enough. I think most people get that feeling with obligations. Maybe not. I am sure the time and responsibility will be quickly reallocated. When I signed on I figured I would learn something. Now I am thinking about what I learned along with the hows and whys. I think my Grandfather would have approved. He is mentioned on page 12 in the folowing time capsule. https://digitalarchives.episcopalarchives.org/the_witness/pdf/1941_Watermarked/Witness_19410515.pdf His noteworthy translation: Kant

"Uh Oh, I don't know if it is going to fit"

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.
