Kenny
Kenney and two of his sons, Rick and Keith, built this garage in 7 days. They showed up at 7am sharp every morning, driving an hour from Manchester NH, which means they rise at 5. This Monday, when it was blistering cold and rainy, they were there, nailing cedar shakes. Amazing workers, proud of their fine worksmanship.
And we get an awesome garage!

You should write a success story for the Boston Globe. How to build a garage without headaches. Your detailed planning, your patience, your ability to find contractors with pride of ownership. Contrast your garage built in seven days to Q’s which lingered for nearly a year.
Don’t just tell us their names, give us contact info.
And, did you ever greet them with a box of coffee from DD?

A record-setter! Mighty impressive. And the red heads add yet another element (plus, I like son-on-the-right’s DJ sweatshirt!).
What about the landscape resolution to the old front “terrace”? Some steps? With a rail … ?
Merry Christmas!

BTR. They say what they do, they do what they say. Kenny’s their framer. Was off to start a new project in Goffstown today, but will be back here with his *three* sons to re-roof the whole house when the snow abates.
I’ll be sure to bring them coffee then.
Adam: Know a good old Italian stone mason? We be needin’ nice steps and a retaining wall…

No text, just a guy with a baseball cap, headphones and an old fashioned turntable.
