When we bought the house in Central Texas, it had been plumbed for four bathrooms, but only two bathrooms had been completed.\u00a0 Two clawfoot tubs were sitting in the side yard.\u00a0 When we had the garage built, we moved the two tubs into the garage to get them out of the weather.\u00a0 I should note that neither tub has feet.\u00a0 We purchased a set of feet, but they weren’t correct for either tub.*<\/p>\n
Last week, we moved both tubs from the garage into the 14 foot trailer in preparation to bringing them to San Antonio with us.\u00a0 We planned to bring them to Gonzales and an architectural antiques place we shop at periodically.\u00a0 They had a selection of tub feet, and we wanted to match up a set or two.<\/p>\n
We took the tubs down today and were fortunate enough to find two sets of feet that will work.<\/p>\n
In less fun work, I pulled two contractor bags worth of weeds from the backyard today.\u00a0 I still have bushes to trim, trees to cut down, and other things to begin rehabilitating the backyard after too much neglect.\u00a0 Lastly, hubby fixed the can crusher (which broke last time we were in town for an extended period.\u00a0 That meant I could crush aluminum cans.<\/p>\n
All in all, a pretty busy day.<\/p>\n
* The architectural antique folks recommend bringing your tubs with you if you need feet.\u00a0 Even if you have casings or castings, there are a number of differences that make it tough to tell if the feet you’re selecting will work on your tub or not.\u00a0 After trying a number of different feet that *looked* like they should fit but didn’t, we’re glad we made the effort to drag the tubs with us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
