So many great posts on the Rehoboth vacation! I thought I'd taken more pictures, but guess I was having too much fun to whip out the camera! I did get a few, so
They work on the car, they work on endless projects in the garage,
and all those remodels home and away. They just get so into their projects. First, the planning stage. It takes almost forever to get past this stage. Then, comes the research stage. This one is endless too. Books, magazines, shopping and talking to "those in the know". All the ins and outs of all the possibilities are explored. Then, comes the shopping stage. Every conceivable plan was painstakingly mapped out and everything needed was researched and found near and far for the best price and purpose. Then, almost all of a sudden, the flurry begins. And it is on!
This is it. The tools of the trade come out of their hiding places. And this time, it is the kitchen that is taken over.
Sorry about these photos- a bit blurry
I wish I could give you more details, but I don't really know the details of these beer making stuff. I think this was Ale of some sort, with blood oranges.
I guess he's doing something important here!
But it goes on.
And, although I'm no beer connoisseur, it tasted pretty darn good!
We've been busy with Pat's remodel. Well, now we're just about done,
and I swear we'll have to be locked out so we don't keep tweaking things!
We've talked with the leasing agent, who, by the way, was really impressed we stayed with the mid-century modern vibe with many original features, and will start showing this
weekend, so we are mainly in clean up mode now.
Pictures tomorrow.
Terry is down there now as I blog this, I'm just waiting for Taylor to get
home with the SUV, so we can unload the closets of all our tools
and cleaning supplies.
I thought I'd put a few "before" pictures to show you how the reveal turned the place around.
Since last I posted, we finished the kitchen:
Changed the faucet, put in the appliances, aligned the cabinets, put on the hardware,
put up the back-splash, window blinds,
and finished installing the hood.
We finished the "cabinet" in the fireplace.
Love that the kitchen window view makes you feel like you are in the woods, but the dining and living room, give you a city view!
In the woods . . .
Oh yeah, we also refinished the deck
and in the city . . .
all that space for a Party! and today, I couldn't get it (too much sun) but the "Hollywood" sign is on the hill out there.
We cleaned windows till the sun went down! So many!
We also put up ceiling fans and blinds and laid carpet in the bedrooms
We're ready for a break in remodeling . . . . . . for a while.
