Traeger

While shopping in Denver last week, we saw this grill/smoker and decided it was perfect for us. Dan has used it almost everyday since we brought it home. It uses pellets and has an easy on/off dial that displays the temperature.

Bench Building

Dan has started the building of the bench, located in the mudroom. Yes, he is sitting down on the job.

Cards and Conversations

While Gus and Nancy were here, we taught them the card game that we play about once a week with our neighbor, Jan. Concentration and different strategies are needed when playing this variation of rummy. We had lots of good conversations in between card games.

Move It to the Left

While Gus and Nancy were here, they helped us hang some of our art. "How does it look? It is too high. Move it to the left. Hand me the level. Where is the hammer?" and other phrases were heard during this process. These pictures will be enjoyed while sitting at the kitchen counter.

Beautiful Plant

This beautiful plant, a bromeliad, was a house warming gift from Gus and Nancy.

wood

Last week we took the Ford pickup and drove to Denver to get lumber for the built ins for the master bedroom. Someday Dan will start working on this project.
