Seasons Greetings - December 2011

I'm no poet, but if I was going to rewrite the twelve days of Christmas, I would want to talk about some of the following:

One Firehouse in Lunenburg,

Two home owners with two fire trucks,



Three talented heritage carpenters,



Four upstairs dormers,

Five downstairs windows,

Six months of building (so far),
Seven foot ceiling in the upstairs
Eight windows upstairs,
Nine plus ten stairs,

Ten times the quality of any other building methods,
Eleven foot ceiling in the downstairs, and
Twelve times twelve and then some years that we'll be able to enjoy the Firehouse.

Will and I would like to wish our heartfelt thanks and all the best of the season to the following individuals and groups who have helped in allowing the Firehouse project to progress as far and as quickly as it has so far:

Colin Edwards, Brad Quarrie and Michael Murphy of Colin Edwards Restoration;
Mike Knock of A-1 Electrical,
Kerry Oickle of KJ Oickle Concrete Construction Ltd.,
Pete Langille of Peter Langille Plumbing and Heating,
the folks at BMR - Lunenburg Hardware,
Sam Collicutt and the rest of the staff at Castle - Nova Scotia Building Supplies,
the crew at Maurice Bruhm Lumber,
the folks at Logs to Lumber,
Johnathon and Jeremy Church,
Ginny Wentzell,
dear friends, Warren and Karen Clement,
Keith Fraser - Building Inspector, Town of Lunenburg,
Ray Francis and the Electrical crew at the Town of Lunenburg,and
Peter Baker and the Public Works crew at the Town of Lunenburg.

We hope that all of you will enjoy a healthy and happy holiday season with your friends and families. If I have missed anyone in this list, it is purely because of poor memory and is in no way an indication of how we feel about you.
