Have Tools, Will Travel

We are off to the parents abode this weekend for excessive turkey and cranberries. We are going early to be able to build a set of outside steps for them. The old steps were decommissioned early this spring as they were deemed unsafe I guess, due to their rotten nature. They were replaced by and old kitchen step stool, because a small, steep, tippy step stool is much better for a pair of 85 year olds to walk on than rotting steps. We tried to build steps in August when we were home but were not allowed because there was a handyman coming to do it. Or something. But the handyman never arrived, or something, so now we are allowed to build proper steps.
Not getting much of an early start today as a result of the excessive eating and drinking last night with friends. Looks like it is shaping up to be an excessive Thanksgiving.
Well, thank the gods for that.
