Normal people spend their spring break at some location other than home, relaxing and shaking off the dormant stupor of winter. We, on the other hand, spend 99.9% of all free time fixing something. And for spring break 2010, we actually recruited other innocent family members to help (they should have known better–it wasn’t their first visit!) and what better project to work on than the stairs?!
I think I’ll let the photos speak for themselves here. I’ll show you a few of the old, incredibly steep, built-for-tiny-pioneer-feet stairs (they were like a painful slide when you slip down them–trust me, I know–so I took revenge on them by having them replaced) and some of the fixing up process. It isn’t always pretty and boy, was it a lot of work, but we got those suckers taken care of and I couldn’t be happier!
