I finally got my uncle out to fix my rickety basement stairs. You may remember that my wife fell down these stairs last August. My uncle Brad does carpentry for a living, and he came up from Stayton a couple times over the last well to fix them. It's almost done, as you can see from the pictures below. All that's left is to install the handrails on both sides.

You can't see it very well in the pictures, but I also got a new door. Amazingly, this one actually opens and closes like a normal door. It doesn't have cracks and holes in it either.

If you need any work done in the Stayton-Salem-Woodburn area, let me know. I'll put you in contact with my uncle. He does really good work.
