Pool Table

Today we loaded up the van with Mark's tools and tied the box spring from our bed and the boy's mattresses to the roof of the van.

We got about halfway down route 19 when one of the mattresses flew off into the street. We parked off the side of the road and ran back to rescue the mattress. As we dragged it back to the van a voice asked if we needed any ladders. A nice woman, who it turns out donated to the y building project, had seen what happened and offered us a couple of ladders so we could retie the mattress to the roof.

Once that was accomplished, we continued to the house. We took the mattresses to their respective rooms and the tools to the hanger. After a lunch of leftover pizza, Mark started hooking up the washer and I started to take apart the pool table. Mark was successful on the washer. We made a discovery on the pool table.

After taking apart the sides, I started to pull up the felt so we could take out what we thought were slate plates. However, we discovered it was simply plywood. We slid it out to the Carnegie room where I originally wanted it to be. Once there, however,... it really is just too big, so the table will be going to the hanger.

We tested the washer by washing the curtains from the Carnegie room. It works.
So, pool table figured out and washer and dryer set, we called it quits for the day.

We have so much left. SO MUCH. But we got a great start.

More to come...
