Here's how the sunrise looked from our deck this morning. It promises to be a pretty nice day - the forecast is for warmer temperatures than yesterday.
I just came back from watching the demolition of Jack and Sue LaGue's cottage on Sandy Beach Road. I got there a little after 8 o'clock and they were well into the job already. There were several onlookers and lots of workers. Jack and Sue were both on hand, having mixed feelings as they watched the work tearing apart their summer home.
I've put together a slide show for you. I start it off with a picture of what our day is like - for now some sunshine with some high clouds making it a bit hazy for short spells. It's still nippy but getting warmer. When the sun is out full force it's quite nice, but not yet up to 40 in the shady areas. Good for working, but the onlookers were a bit chilly. Here's the slide show: LaGue Demolition
I left just before the big truck left with most of the cottage aboard. There was a smaller dump truck waiting to take the remainder of the building. As with the Gagne demolition, they will take the remains to Coventry. Within a few more hours things will be cleaned up there and Kirk Fenoff's equipment will roll down the road a few rods to assist with the trusses ready to go on the Gagne home, and at LaGue's, the carpenters are poised ready to get going so they can have the place reasonably weather tight by Thanksgiving. Both homes will be ready for occupancy in the spring.
You can see that all hands are on the upper deck at Gagne's this morning, getting ready for Kirk.
