Parry Sound Postcards
If you’ve been looking for a website that contains curated postcards of Parry Sound, Ontario with an focus on two areas:
- The Town Beach (the old town beach at the foot of Waubuno Road)
- The James & Seguin intersection (downtown Parry Sound)
then your search is over.
Sun T-Shirts
As part of a recent major household clean-up I finally tackled a small project that I had been avoiding. Tucked away in the back of the closest in my home office, on a top shelf, pushed to the corners were several stacks of T-Shirts & Sweaters. They were folded one on top of each other, seemed to be pretty clean but as you’ll see were in various stages of disrepair. Some I obviously liked more than others based on the wear patterns.
Repairing Sash Cords
A typical problem in older houses is that eventually, even with continuing fine care, the sash cords that hold the invisible weights that equalize the balance between both the top and bottom windows (called more precisely the upper and lower sashes) eventually wear out. Apart from the unattractiveness of a clearly broken cord on sash window is the supremely dangerous and painful prospect of the window coming crashing down because there is very little support to keep it in place.
