The bird's nests are gone!

When the bathroom started to stink, and not just because of the functions that are preformed in the bathroom, Keith agreed that something needed to be done about those birds. So he found a guy on Craigslist that cleans air ducts dryers. He said he could take care of the duct over our bathroom for $75.00. This poor guy had no idea what he was getting into. When he opened up the duct not one but five or six bird's nests dropped out of the vent, along with a trash bag full of unmentionables. Thank heavens, Kendall had a field on the day he did this so I wasn't in the house. GROSS!

Those stinking birds had poked holes in the vent with their beaks. Poor Eleio had to clean out all the yuck, then completely replace the vent, and the flap that goes outside so that they could get back in. It took him 6 hours.

But in those many hours Keith came to find out that Eleio was a handy guy. So he tried to make the day worth his while by having him do a few other things around the house that Keith was never going to get too. Our good friend, Eleio, ended up spending three days at our house fixing the gate downstairs, hanging the medicine cabinet, actually cleaning out the dryer duct (his real profession), hanging a blind, and best of all, he put on the knobs in our kitchen and bathrooms, that we have had for over a year but just never found the time to put on. This was a big win-win for Eleio and Keith, Eleio needed the work and Keith came out the hero for getting my wish list complete.
