   when I was a kid, dad used to paint houses in the summer to supplement his teachers salary.  He had a 73 VW bug and a 40' ladder.  Wish I had pictures of it.

   EXTENDED?? No one should regard themselve as "God's gift to man." But rather a mere man whos gifts are from God.

   it was usually one summer painting and the next a major project on the house.  in 6 years (w)he re-did the living/dining, all new windows, kitchen, all new cedar shingles and a roof.  I still remember it all, especially " yea you can go out with your friends, right after you bring me up 2 rolls of tar paper and that stack of shingles...." just what a 13 year old wants to hear! 

    

   Along the lines of this thread, I am going to start taking pics of the stuff like that that I see.
