Awake: 6:25am Temp 42 sleep 6+29 light, steady rain Overnight @ Nicktown.
After our KK meeting, we returned to our motorhome & began to eat breakfast when Bernie, the builder, rang our doorbell; "Matt, the window guy, is here so we would like to have you @ the house whenever it's convenient" he said.
We put our partially eaten breakfast in the refrigerator & joined them within minutes. Matt drove from State College this morning to finalize our windows & coordinate the measurements with Bernie & us.
Matt, Bernie, & Kathy all referred to their paper work, arriving at agreement regarding all the window details.
We made a few changes as to size, placement, & style of some of the windows.
Mid to late morning, in came a John Deere with a front driller;
He is drilling (8) large holes on the backside of our house
& (2) on the front near our entry; These concrete foundations to be poured for the posts that will support our ½ wrap-around porch structure, & in front, our entry porch.
Shortly after Matt left, 84 Lumber drove in with a load of small trusses for our front porch entry.
Just behind him, the concrete truck to fill those (10) holes with concrete.
Dinner: We had ½ of our turkey dinner from the Heilwood purchase. It was very good.
We finished watching: "The Sunshine Boys" with Walter Matthau, George Burns, Richard Benjamin, Lee Meredith, Carl Arthur, etc. Two cranky ex-vaudevillians are persuaded to re-team for a TV special in this popular Neil Simon Comedy, from his Broadway play. Some of the "humor" is abrasive, but Matthau and Oscar-winning George's first starring film role since HONOLULLU in 1939. This movie: 1975. Burns was amazing for his age. Matthau, not my style.
Lights out: 11:54pm.
