yes, there is a man on an extension ladder in my living room.  i can't see a superman or spiderman costume, so guess it must be my dear hub-unit.  we live at the edge of a woods and have long battled carpenter ant invasion.  they are insidious and we finally hired a bug man to come out every 3 months to spray around the base of the house to keep the ants out.  in early spring, tho, they go into super invasive mode and the flying ones start swarming.  it drives me totally batshit crazy to be sitting in the living room and suddenly have one of the buggers land on my knitting or book or arm ... seemingly from out of nowhere.  so, their main gathering and launching place is the skylight.  and, by the way, if you ever build yourself a dome home and want to have a skylight, it would be a good idea to have an easy and safe plan for accessing said skylight.  we did not do that.  so, periodically the extension ladder gets brought in and while i stand by with the phone in hand and ready to dial 911,  Jim goes up to the skylight.  i hope this is the last time he does it... he is almost 75 and that is pretty extreme activity.  the center of the dome is 26 ft up and he wasn't quite that high... but close to it.  what you can't see is the vacuum cleaner that he has tied to one of the upper steps on the ladder... so, he got a whole bunch of the ants sucked up and got down ok.  and the bug man is scheduled for next week.  there are many things in life that i'm fearless about... going up ladders is not one of them.  but i will say that when we built the house i went up the scaffolding to the very top and put in the final bolt in the framing.  that was a long time ago when i was much younger and more fearless and crazy than i am these days.  that feat may have involved a glass or 2 of wine... not sure anymore....
