Big Raincoat877 viewsThe raincoats at this exhibit were a bit big. We rolled up the sleeves, but as he squats here to pull the rope (which dumped a bucket of water), you can see how huge it is on him.

Work on Main Railing877 viewsNext work began on the angled railing. First, the bottom newel post was cut to length and installed with lag screws into the framing of the stairway. Next, a new oak board was ripped to proper width, and mitered to fit over the top of the stairway framing. Finally, the bottom shoe rail was installed on top of this board.

On the bed876 viewsMoo liked to hang out on our bed. Bailey and her would often alternate, whoever had "dibs" winning out, and the other jumping up as soon as the first left.

Not-so-great Picture871 viewsWe tried to get a picture of us with the Washington Monument in the background, but it didn't turn out well (we put it up here anyway). There are more views of the Washington Monument in our Landmarks gallery.

870 viewsInstalling the upper railing proved to be tricky. Getting the length and miter cuts just right required a lot of careful measuring. We practiced with a 2x4 stud and thought we had the technique down. However, we messed up, cutting one of the miters the wrong direction. Since this rail is $6.60/linear foot, we thought this was going to be an expensive mistake. Fortunately, Home Depot gave us credit for the remaining length, so we were only out one foot, and did it correctly with the replacement rail.

Black Smoke868 viewsI was actually surprised they let us stand as close as we did. We were perhaps 8' back from the tracks when I took these pictures. It was quite loud when they blew the whistle and then blew off steam!

Rot problem867 viewsAfter removing a lot of siding and sheathing, we found the rot extended all the way to the foundation, directly under the left side of the patio door.
