They took it onto the neighbor\u2019s carport roof, then up to the top of the house-3 floors up!\u00a0 Then lowered it down to the ground in front of the house!!!\u00a0 Wow!\u00a0 What a job.\u00a0 Glad to hear that is still works today!!! They are all moved in and thankful that is done!  Latest new on Amy and Hector is that Hector broke an ankle and torn a tendon in his foot playing volleyball.  He will be off his feet for awhile.
