20110806 Ladder Innovation

So I need to get up to the 2nd floor, chase away the bees, take down the shutters, pressure wash the siding, paint the shutters black, scrape/sand/prime/paint the badly chipping window brick mold, sill and drip cap, and reinstall shutters.

On 9 windows, then there are 3 shutterless ones on the back of the house.

It was clear that setting up the ladder on one side of a window, moving to the other, was just not going to cut it. So I made a standoff. And used it. And reinforced it.
