Good afternoon. Going to be hot again. Know what you're putting up with
Sherrel. Couldn't have been more than 15 minutes after Todd left yesterday when my daughter called to let me know that they'll be up for a few days. They rented a house in town for their stay like they did last time. Guess there will not be a train watching trip Monday.
My coffee came yesterday. I like to get whole bean coffee and the prices for any coffee has cone nuts. $10 or more (a lot more) per pound in the grocery store. I used to get my beans at Costco and ordered on line and got 2 three pound bags for $39. I was getting the Kirkland but this San Francisco Bay was as good as the Kirkland and a little over a buck cheaper.
I had mentioned putting in a backsplash in the kitchen. The cabinets absolutely would not have been my first choice. Would have preferred white. Guess that's what they make paint for. Don't care for the electric stove but there isn't any natural gas here and being a condo, putting a propane tank would not have been popular. I did like the under mount sink and that the counter tops are quartz, bit again, not my first choice. Here's the backsplash as it doesn't show much in the coffee photo.
Not a big kitchen, but then, it's only me.
Terry - That's my kind of exercise but the dogs would prefer a longer walk. There's nothing more effecting than a heat wrench. Used it many times.
Troy - I liked a fan in the window but don't have any breathing problems. Bummer.
Gary - Love the layout photos and track plan. Looking forward for layout updates.
Willie - As usual, I enjoy your photos.
Todd - I really don't see anything funny about the sign you posted. That's the way it is.
Ken - I have to agree about the hot water tank. My place is a new build and the tank is not strapped to the wall. In my pld place though, the tankless water heater was mounted to the wall. Guess they're worried about earthquakes.
Sherrel - Charlie has the same instincts that my girls have.
Back to the archives for some more old photos. Unfortunately the stock pens couldn't be saved.
