and here ends the moratorium...

Since Eduardo was in training Monday through Saturday this last week, and we ended up working somewhat late on the house monday night, I declared a moratorium on house work until the end of the class. Even with the moratorium, Thursday was a late night since the carpenters came to install the doors and I still did a fair amount of shopping. But today ended the moratorium, so Eduardo is back at it, with me as the faithful tool-passer.

So this morning the lights over the cool table that hang from the trunk were installed. This required drilling two holes through the trunk and making a channel along the top so that the wires wouldn't be visible from the ground. Since the long drill bit wasn't perfectly straight, the majority of the drilling hand to be done using a hand-drill after starting it with the electric. But it went smoothly, and was all done before lunch time.
