Our family friend, Joe Simenstad, was helping Jennifer and Stan this weekend in Dundas, getting Jennifer's house ready for winter. Joe moved a sink and hooked up the plumbing, while Stan worked on a counter top.
Joe took a phone call from his Mom with some family news, then she mentioned another detail: a wind storm dropped a tree on Joe's old log project house. Joe's been restoring this family heirloom near his parent's home, adding a nice new metal roof among other things. He's been at it off and on for a few years. . . now there's more to do.
Two steps forward . . . one step back, Joe.
