Things are shaping up


The dining room now after shades, a new coat of paint, new lights, and the floor being done.  I promise that the paint is not that yellow.  It's just the picture.  I swear.  Right now you can see we are stripping the paint off of the built in behind the table.  Every piece of trim is beautiful fir waiting to be exposed but most will never see the light of day because it is a pain in the arse to strip paint!


The dining room before... a sight to behold.  That shag was vintage but we wanted to go circa 1911 retro with wood floors. 


As usual, Henry is close by helping his Mom and Dad with the household duties.  The latest project is to install a tankless water heater before the deadline for the Federal and State tax credits.  The race is on.  Pictures of the installation to follow.

At the beach

Kind of a rainy weekend but that won't stop us from going out to enjoy the beach.





Henry was enjoying himself in wind. 





Sand is good even if it is wet and you are wearing your hat, two coats and shoes.
