REQUEST PERMISSION TO COME ABOARD



CHARLESTOWN, Mass. (Jan. 14, 2008) The first major snowfall of the New Year blankets the USS Constitution. Despite the weather "Old Ironsides," remained open for free public tours. At 210 years-old, USS Constitution is the oldest commissioned warship afloat in the world, manned by 67 active-duty United States Sailors and visited by nearly half a million visitors annually.

Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...a good commute to close out the week?

Preparations complete for your big weekend?

I came home early for a meeting with the stair lift people and what is possible to eliminate the need for my Mom to navigate any stairs to downstairs to her computer and the laundry and out to the garage. They will get an estimate ready and send it to me. Ballpark figure is pretty pricey, but I don’t see how it can be helped. Now I need to figure out financing.

We already have a straight run of 9 stairs, but will need a whole new system that comes down 9 stairs, wraps around and goes down 5 more. The a 90 degree turn, with door modifications, or seal up that door and make a new one for a straight run. I shall be busy until this mobility problem is fixed.
