march 7 and 8

made it up to get a little bit of work done this weekend. i wasn't much help- really tired and trying not to get sick.

steve was really productive tho! the ceiling fan made it up last time steve was up.
we took the games that have been gathering dust in the basement up. no tv, no internet connection- they may actually get played! and it's at a point where we can sit down once in a while and relax.
we got there around sunset- this is how it looked from the master bedroom.
steve's plan for the weekend was to get the floor down in the guest bath upstairs.

things are coming along nicely. i really like the color of the walls, and as suspected the white towels & fixtures provide a nice contrast.
we went to the brew pub for dinner and music. this week a guitarist, bass player & harmonica. they were great fun! played dylan, neil young, you are my sunshine- all in their own style. it is a treat to be able to go and drink a nice glass of wine (or beer), have good food & hear good music. it's like a concert in your living room.

then home, back to work this morning. steve finished the bathroom (see above) and got the ceiling grates up in the bedrooms. i slept in and the dogs and i had a short romp on the snow.

here's the jeep all fitted out with the plow courtesy of jake. steve got to push a little snow around this morning, but not much. i'm sure it will come in handy again tho.
here's some proof that fun is to be had- all set to go off on an adventure.
it was a beautiful day.

Electrical

Happy days. We passed our final electrical inspection without any bumps, surprises or whatevers. Nice to have it out of the way. The light fixtures are all still up and working. Of course they are. Not much to report other than that. Still a lot of work to be done, but it'll have to happen when the snow is gone or to cruddy on the hill to ski. Don't have many weeks of skiing left, unless winter decides to show back up soon. Pinapple express is here at the moment, but I'm hoping we get a colder front with moisture out of the gulf of Alaska before the month is out. More snow pack is needed for the summer water.
Stay tuned.
