August 29 - Sept 2 - Kitchen backsplash in progress, cabinet knobs, bathroom mirrors & propane tank in place..

Hopefully the trim carpenters can return and complete the remaining items later this week or latest  early next week.  The closer it gets to the end of this type of  project the more obstacles/delays arise.  We'll get there, just takes a lot of patience.  Also, had the water filtration system installed today (Tuesday).  Rocky will be in full control for the next two weeks while I head to San Diego to snuggle with my little man, Cole!  Of course he has a lot to keep him busy while I am gone and pray all goes well.   





Tight space, this is the power room.
