Window repairs and stair construction

The snow lingers but progress marches on.  The cutting was completed this week by Bob for the three basement stairs stringers.  The adjacent walls at the temporary stairs are in as well so it is "just" a matter of hoisting out the temporary ones and building the permanent ones in place.   Next up is getting the materials and cutting them ready for the treads and backing boards.  That way we are "stairless" for a shorter period of time.  The porch railing materials were kept swept clean through the winter for February installation, but it looks as though that will be postponed to a summer caper.
