Accounting for Fun

Since I must return to work in Logan soon, our summer building season is quickly drawing to a close. Reviewing the "to do" list last week provided great satisfaction because we were able to cross off most of our projects.

The Pretty Big Things:
* grout and seal the bedroom floor
* finish  Scott's office: metal on counters and put trim on walls
* add the facade to the entryway pony wall and install doorknob coat hangers
* hang exterior lights and cover outlets
* build wheelchair ramp
* clean and re-wax the veranda posts

 And the Really Big Ones
* sand, stain and place the window seat
* apply last plaster coat and aliz to exterior
* paint exterior bump outs
* lay veranda pavers
* THE KITCHEN: oven, counter, sink and cooktop (We're in the middle of putting down the cork floor right now.)

Whew!

Riley, Scott and I had time for a trip to Blind Lake, a popular destination on Boulder Mountain.


Still, Scott and Riley couldn't resist a bit more construction.

But, despite a brief few hours spent searching for two of our llamas who got off their stake out lines, we had plenty of time for skipping stones.
