You may wonder why the h3@! we have not fixed or replaced several nagging problems at the QTH, including hard to slide doors, shaky sliding screens, or any of a handful of other aggravations. The fact is that it is nearly impossible to get the needed parts, and also pretty nigh impossible to find local contractors who can or will do this work. We have done 98% of our maintenance on our own for all these years, and most things at the house are in good shape. But some of the work, such as getting new sliders, is almost impossible. Many such things are extremely difficult on the island. Thanks for being tolerant of the stuff that does not work right. We know about it and are trying very hard. Your assistance in any way is welcome!

One of my first priorities after getting there in October will be to get a new air conditioner for the West Bedroom. This will be trickier than normal because my favorite store and Wimco sales rep have both disappeared. We’ll paint it with epoxy immediately after installation.
We got it. The new air conditioner was installed in the West Bedroom on October 16. Later that week I found and fixed the roof leak in the WBR. All is well now.
