- Fixed panel door where electrical meters are located on the 200 building

Lina's notes for this week.


- Painted the side of 608 to match building by bay window - just need to finish the higher areas that require 2 people to monitor the ladder.

- Continue monitoring the breakwater project done by Randy Edwards crew. ..

- Picked up more supplies needed for the second finger pier to be disassembled and reassembled.  Randy's crew did the first finger pier but we have requested for it to be raised and leveled with the first finger pier we had done in house before starting on the second pier.  We are currently deciding whether Jerry can do the remaining 2 in house.

- Monitored the sewer camera job by Steve of Peninsula Plumbing.  There were no broken pipes found or roots in any of the sewer pipes. There is alot of grease buildup in the pipes.  There are a few pipes that have a belly that water stays in place - from 100 to 700 (104 to 708) under driveway, from behind 701 to lift station under driveway, from from 200 to 100, from office to lift station.  His suggestion is to get the pipes jetted and to run a larger sewer snake.  We can do this in house with our new auger that we just purchased and with its attachments.

- Received new exterior closet door for 605 from Probuild. We also received another closet door ordered by Kontiki Beach Management office for 605.  They had ordered this door in December but was back ordered and charged the owner for it.  I did explain to them that the door they had ordered was for interior but they said this is what they always ordered and had already installed on several units within the past year.  We will keep the exterior door as extra and look at other units that may need replacing.

- Assembled pool ladder purchased and ready to take to welder this week for brackets at the bottom of the ladder.

- Pressured washed the back deck of 706 at the request of owner.

- Received the remaining long boards for finger piers and moved to back of office.

- Checked for loose boards and nails sticking up on finger piers, crossbridge, and big pier.

- Fixed entrance gate chain that broke - sprayed corrosion X on both exit and entry gate chains.  Rusty from Hub City Overhead Doors said that is the best lube we can use but suggests we change out the chains to nickle plated. Nickle plated is $110 and stainless steel is $335. Jerry suggested to replace the chains as they are in very bad shape and that they will only last another 3 weeks. It takes a week for an order to come in for chains.

- Trimmed some of the dead leaves that had fallen over on the bird of paradises.  Bloomers nursery suggested not to completely cut it off until fallen over for hydration.

- Trimmed the bushes in front of the 600 building of dead leaves

- Spoke with Allen regarding the pool project and insurance compliance and he said he will have a set starting date after Feb 17.

- Painted the back of office - but the wall was too wet.

Finally saw some white pelicans today. They usually gather behind Paws and Taws, but this year they have been scarce. I think the lack of fish in the area has something to do with their absence. Their reappearance may be a harbinger of better fishing.

Condo 608 closed today. I knew it wouldn't last long at that price. I think sometimes realtors underprice a property to get a quick sale. The new owners in this case are from Montana.

I went by the accounting office today to sign our income tax statement. We owed $8.

All the work on the foundation under my condo has apparently lead to collateral damage. My granite counter top is now in two, nearly the same size, pieces. Two floor tiles are also cracked and they are not even through with all the work.

It looks as if all the work on replacing the stucco on the back of the 200 building is going to cost two to three times the original estimate of $10,000.

 The old breakwater is slowly coming apart.I hope we can salvage some of it after paying over $300,000 to put it up.

 With so little food around this time of year, the seagulls become very friendly and will eat out of your hand. Just be careful. Their beaks are sharp and they move quickly. Why do so few have the completely black head?

 The tide is finally out to where it should be this time of year.  Last year this piled up sand was behind the bulkhead at 308. This year it has moved further out.

Construction continues on this condo. I'm not sure what it will look like when the owner finishes.

The Vietnam Memorial Wall was in town this weekend. Friday and Saturday were not good weather days and it closed today at 2. There was a really nice crowd and very helpful workers to help you find names. 58000 is lot of names, but when you see them all displayed, you realize how many really died. They are still adding names as DNA evidence identifies MIAs.
