And The Rain Came Down

We had Cheryl and Joey come in tonight and they managed to get here right before the clouds let loose. We didn’t even get a chance to start to unpack the glass and tools they had brought with them when a clap of thunder hit and the lights went out. I was the only one to comment aloud. A “Not again!” peirced the darkness because all I could think of was how we needed to set up the generator about a month or so ago when we lost power during the last thunder storm. Luckily the generator was right outside the door and even more luckily, the power came back on within 20 seconds. There was a lot of thunder and it rained and rained outside, but the power never flickered again during the night.

Joey finished up his Mickey Mouse window. He washed it up, added hooks, colored it, washed it again, waxxed it and then hung it up to take pictures. That’s a lot of trips to the sink but that’s just the way it is. :-) Mickey Mouse looks great and Joey did a great job on it throughout the entire process. Next on Joey’s list of things to do is a Mallard Window that you’ll see started next week. There are a lot of feathers in it but I have no doubt he can handle it after doing the above average Mouse window you see here.

Cheryl finished soldering her RV window and added hooks to it. She left before it was washed and colored so look for another picture of it next week when you see it with the final touches on it. I think she’ll find that it somehow managed to finish itself at this point. :-)

And we all wish Cheryl all our best with her surgery which will happen this coming week. The Carpal Tunnel may have slowed her down in the past, but it won’t any more. Look for Cheryl to come back better than ever in a few short weeks (if not sooner).
