B i L Dave was not a hoarder of phone books, newspapers, TV trays, and other detritus. He had an eye for art, quality antique furniture, real cast bronze art, a variety of antique musical instruments, Antique weapons, and more. No junk. He couldn't sleep in his own bed as it was piled full of swords. Dave knew quality and collected penny on the dollar. He did some turn around with antique dealers in Minneapolis.
As his house is racked and stacked with multiples. Scandinavian folk art too.
Talked to B i L Mark tonight. The initial shock has passed and now the daunting task of remediating the water damage. Think wall to wall carpet on two levels well anchored by antiques. I told Mark to forget rolling carpet. Cut the stuff out with a Exacto knife piece meal asap because that stuff is going to start stinking. And mushrooms! I mentioned Service Master which he had never heard of. Curious as he worked apartment management the last 35 years. He has found decomposing tenants.
Cataract surgery done on Left eye. Doc says Okey Dokey. Dull aching right now. Time to do eye meds.
