We watched the local fireworks from the driveway last night and the kids had some sparklers. The neighbor came over and brought an arsenal of fireworks with him, as well, so he lit them off for a mini-show. Out neighborhood is pretty good, no one calls the police for little fireworks. Technically anything that explodes in IL is illegal, so you have to drive to IN or WI to get anything like that. Tonight we are going to a BBQ across the street as well. TB - I read your C6 got sold, that's too bad. But good luck with your sale and then you will be free to look some more without restrictions. Marcus - as far at the joists, the house was built in the 70s. The house is a split level with a crawl under the raised portion. There was a main support beam, but it wasn't bulky or strong enough so the house sagged slightly in the middle. My BIL is a construction guy, so he's remodeling the whole house anyway. They replaced the old wood support with a metal I-beam. Hope everyone has a great day! Matthew |
