Oh yeah...I also have good quality 2 piece Grade 1 extension ladders. The 36 footer is getting a bit heavy to handle at 80 pounds. Let your wife set it up for you. She did assist me up to the last paint job. She would anchor the ladder's feet while I walked it up to a vertical position and she'd help me turn it to face the wall. On occasion she'd support the ladder when I was up working between the 20 and 26 foot level...then I caught her not doing her job. She complained that it was "boring". Watching for your safety would be boring. She sounds like a solid woman. Krause and White, the K&W twins, will turn that into some kind of ugly comment about Don's wife. |

Why would my safety be boring? I would think attending to my needs if I fell off a ladder would be worse...eh, Johnny? Who said your safety was boring? What needs? Attending to your needs would be worse than what? Why are you asking me questions? Alex made the nice comment about your wife. Thank him instead. |
