Little Helper


While wiring the new light fixture in the Living Room, Chloe helped me run the wiring from the attic down to the first floor. I gave her a walkie-talkie and we coordinated the pull/push of the string to pull the wire through the wall. She was a terrific helper, without her it would have taken me six trips in and out of the attic. I was up in the attic with insulation all around me trying to look down the hole and I would hear, "stuck again..." crackle across the walkie-talkie. I would pull the wire up a bit and then tell her to pull down and sure enough it worked with a, "Daddy... your going too far!" was a sure sign the wire was past the switch box.
