Up goes the studio

 Herbert and his crew sprang into action this morning ripping off the garage door and siding.  The art studio is being born this weekend.

There's a trailer in the driveway.  A pile of hardiplanks.  Mysterious-looking things wrapped in plastic.  Boxes of nails.  Extension chords, ladders, rolls of insulation, wood, glue, buckets.

Herbert's hammer looks like a sci-fi weapon the size of a watermelon.  No one messes with Herbert's hammer.  The thing hisses like one mean little creature.

Oh but the work it does!

The walls are up. 

The doors are in.

Just need a window.

And a lock.

 

We bought the track lights at Home Depot and the Sears salesman was nice, who helped us pick the AC unit and promised it'd be loaded into the back of our car in less than five minutes (and it was true!).

 

 Herbert said the place would be ready tomorrow.

I should be moving my pencils in on Monday.

Yipeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!
