A lot can happen in three weeks, especially at this point in the game. Let’s see… All the flooring has been laid, the walls repainted, electrical in the house all finished, and as I type this I can hear the hum of the insulation machine in the background. Oh yeah… and… this Read More

I know… I know… promised you all the kitchen way back on Wednesday, but the appliances didn’t get completely installed until Thursday, and well, I had a little trick up my sleeve for this weekend. We threw the first annual Chasse eat lots of hot dogs and beans family party Read More

Incredible… Almost made it through the whole day before I realized today is my “fallen and I can’t get up” broke my neck day 4 years ago to this day from a skiing accident at Deer Valley, Utah. Glad this day is no longer filled with the pain and anguish of years Read More

I had a pretty cool conversation with an old friend that I’ve known since before high school at the bar New Year’s evening that turned into the most awesome countertop I could have ever wished for! Funny how casual conversation can lead to a few pictures via e-mail, Read More

There’s certainly plenty of things to write about tonight. Pretty amazing that I’m finding it difficult to keep up with the blog because I’m at the house so often, but I feel like a chimpanzee with his first taste of cotton candy. I just can’t get enough Read More
