Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for March 06, 2024

Make sure you get it blueprinted.

Perry needs a better plan than the Dumbrowsky brothers, they are supposed to be leveling the floors in the Hebberhof house.

Maybe not. You know what they say about the best laid plans.

I plan on going to bed.

While he’s at it, Perry should look into getting a clue.

Perry’s in luck. Margrett is back home writing up plans for him at this very moment.

That’s the Close Enough Construction Company hard at work

I recall a song the included this:

Building is a dangerous thing to do when the work you do outlives you.

I recall that when I see the beautiful details in the house we have. We take seriously the need for maintenance and upgrades as the years add up. We are only the third owners in 58 years.

A plan for a plan.

♪♫ “Make a new plan, Stan. Don’t be so Err-y, Perry…” ♪♫

Good morning Balladeers!

Change your life in an instant Perry. Evidently the ladies swoon when they see a man with a plan.. wearing a tool belt with a hammer.

Naw, Perry is more of a sidewalk superintendent.

It wasn’t until later that he noticed the name of the remodelers: Dormer & Eaves.

Left to his thoughts, he once again relives the moment the two went their separate ways — Perry and masonry.

Perry is suddenly horrified to realize he has been the default architect of his own fate.

Planless, Perry is nonetheless heartened to find himself still structurally sound and standing after five decades.

Man plans, the Gods laugh.

Did Perry forget what Robert Burns said?

Perry plans on getting hammered on screwdrivers.

a man, a plan, a canal, pana-perry-ma…

Perry needs to plan on how to get into the house. Maybe through the back door?

Good night, Ballardears.
