After five weeks, a summary list:

• Anne Marie, Jim, Bill and Rebecca: for two glorious painting parties that worked wonders
• Mom (Red Bull): for demolition, spackling, painting and coolers full of goodies
• Marilyn (The Governor): for babysitting contractors, cleaning like a hurricane, painting and picnic baskets
• Megan: for replenishing our dessert stocks and encouraging our garden dreams
• Richard (The Stormtrooper): for being our electrician, carpenter, plumber and mobile workshop
• And to Dad, Granzi and Grandpop, for mailed tools and encouragement
