Prep to parge


On the progress front, we took delivery of a propane fueled gas furnace this week in an effort to catch up a little with modern technology.  We received a good price from Bob's golfing partner who is a ticketed sheet metal installer for the local fuel supply facility. We are also proceeding with the masonry parging of the west basement wall.  By good fortune we have connected with a neighbor who is a semi-retired stone mason and who will do this for us for a very reasonable fee. Harley is looking on at the "before" for the west side of the house where Bob is prepares the wall for the parging.
