They came by on Thursday and did the remaining demolition. This is my view from the car in the garage Friday morning before I left for work. They plan to come back on Tuesday to clear the debris and pour cement in the afternoon.
Tried to hit a few yard sales, but the street is partly closed for one of the parades for Days of '47, i.e Pioneer Day. A state holiday, and much bigger than the 4th of July here. One of the perils of living downtown, we get the odd parade and marathon closure. We went out, hoping to do other errands. But it's already hot, and I lost interest after the first one. The rest were much farther and the traffic here will only get worse. There are several later in the day, we may venture out. We may not. Hard to tell.
Did go back out. Got some lightswitch covers at an estate sale.
"We cannot live in a world that is interpreted for us by others. An interpreted world is not a home. Part of the terror is to take back our own listening. To use our own voice. To see our own light."

downtown living...much to say for and against...but I think you have a good balance
gz,
Indeed. All in all, it works best for us.
i miss downtown living. nothing ever happens here except for lawn maintenance and the occasional shrieks from a backyard pool party. #yawn
great quote ... worth framing and nailing to the wall above the tv
Tristan,
I agree. I'd needlepoint it, if I knew how.
I liked living downtown back when I did many, many decades ago. It was a small town but it was fun. (And I could WALK to and from the bars!)
Cat,
Best way.
