Well the awning fabric finally came in and it is very nice. Was worth the wait and all the stress. This shows
the contrast. The color doesn't quite match, but looks ok.
The smaller awning was suppose to be the easiest, but ran into a BIG (what else is new) problem, the spring was broken. We remembered that it had broken before, but John fixed it with some zip ties. No luck there, so a run was made to rv parts place and lo and behold they had just what he needed.
The small bedroom window was the only one we didn't have a problem with. The slide topper took 2 hours and should have taken 30 minutes (what else is new). A inset screw had broken off and he couldn't get the arm out. So had to drill out a BIG hole to get it lose. BUT John perservered (middle name) and got the job done. A neighbor offered his ladder and help, which we accepted, and over the course of 3 days 3 more neighbors came by and offered help and suggestions. We welcomed all!!
That will be all of our home improvements for awhile.
There are only 4 of us playing pickleball, so needless to say it doesn't take very long for us to wear out.
But what fun!
