Every once in a while I have a good idea.
And every rarer once in a while my husband has to admit it.
.

.
He’d been out front struggling with those silly balustrades popping in and out of the top rail for an hour on the second frustrating day when I said “Why don’t we just tape them in place until we get them lined up?”
.

.
He grumbled and swore it wouldn’t work, but ya know what?
.

.
It was the perfect solution.
.

.
Time consuming, yes.
.

.
But we lined those babies up and snapped that top rail on smooth as butter.
The hardest part was him admitting it was my idea.
🤣
.
Good one! And I’ll admit that tape is a lot faster, easier, and less intrusive than inviting blog buddies to hold a pole.

16 poles per section, 2 bathrooms. The math just didn’t work..

I would have squatted in your woods, if only for a chance at a ride in your new horse-drawn carriage…

Ride? There’s no riding allowed….
My husband wouldn’t even let me put Dudley in the seat lest he scratch it.

Great simple solution to the balustrade problem, onya. Now, where will we be storing the buckboard when winter comes to destroy it? (It will, you know.)

Thank you.
At this point if it doesn’t end up in our bedroom, I’m good.

Did the old fart crack his face muscles when he apologized. (I would consider a mumbled “You were right.” an apology.

He did not.
Crack, or apologize.
As for “you were right”, I’m still waiting.
