The dumpster came. The materials came. The permits did not come. Our contractors did not understand the ins and outs of working on a project in Winthrop. There is the Building inspector, the town permit people and the Conservation Committee all to be reckoned with. What they expected to take a few hours, actually took a few days. By the time the permits were pulled, they had another formidable force to deal with...New England weather.
So here we sit, four days after materials and dumpster arrived, with nothing to show for it but a big blue empty dumpster, two piles of material covered with blue tarps and a very muddy yard.
Oh, they did come by today to do some work, despite the wind only to find out the town of Winthrop does not allow any contractors to work on Sunday. There's always tomorrow or the week after! More later.
