Started installing ceramic tile backsplash in the kitchen today.
Don is suffering with a toothache.
Hope everyone in having a good day!

Spoon Handles
Spoon handles for our kitchen cupboards.
How we did it. I bent a teaspoon by hand to give Don and idea of what I wanted. Don built a wood block mold
wala the country kitchen look effect
Time Flies
WOW I can't believe how long it has been since I last posted. Guess that comes from being busy. We are all in fairly good health and hope all our friends and family are too!
I have stayed busy with paperwork and such trying to clean up my dad's estate and am hoping we have reached a point we can close within the next couple of months. It is amazing how difficult things can be even when one leaves a will.
We have not done a lot of traveling this winter one short trip to Irvine California.
We have installed a lot of kitchen cabinets created our own handles from teaspoons for the cupboard door. We are in the process of building our own countertops and installing them now. Then Don can hook the plumbing up. After that will come the backsplash and completing the rollaway kitchen island. May not sound like a lot of work but it takes us awhile since we have gotten in the habit of only working when we want to or feel like it or when there isn't something more fun and interesting to do.
Don has gotten involved in helping a gravel and construction company that is expanding the gun training range called Front Sight here. In fact yesterday and today there is a film crew there filming the start of the project.
For those of you who have never heard of Front Site.
Front Sight Firearms Training Institute's world-class firearms training facilities near Las Vegas, Nevada -- taught by seasoned and professional law enforcement, military, and private citizen instructors to levels that far exceed law enforcement and military standards, without any boot camp mentality or drill instructors attitudes. After your first self defense firearms training course at Front Sight you will leave with self defense firearms training skills that surpass 99% of the gun owning population!
Don is suppose to be moving the big scrapper in this morning. He is feeling young and frisky since he went and got his cdl physical and the doctor asked him if he was sure of his birthdate. Doctor said 69 year old men are usually not in as good s shape as he is.
It is beginning to warm up around here had to turn on the air conditioner yesterday. We are beginning to think about where we want to spend our summer this year. We are really hoping that dads estate will close we can spend it in Alaska visiting friends and family.
Take care ya all
