Never Too Late!

I'm so happy! We have lived in this house for 21 years and everytime we need to go up in the attic in the garage, we've always just stuck an old orchard ladder up against the wall and Lamar (or Andy) would climb up there and get whatever we needed. Of course, the ladder was never tall enough, so you could only climb up so far and then you'd have to hoist yourself up the rest of the way. (This is a great upper-body exercise for those of you who want to try it sometime!)....me, I stay on the ground, thank you.



Well, last week, we went to Home Depot and bought attic stairs! Yay! Yesterday, our friend, Mark Ebert, came over to start the project. He did most of the work, while Andy helped up top and Lamar helped down below. Yesterday afternoon, we went back to Home Depot to buy some trim and other things that we need to finish it up. I look forward to getting up there myself and throwing away most of what's up there!...Maybe we'll even find Andy's official Jordan jersey that he's been looking for forever! This is what it looks like so far!
