Walking and wondering. If a mosquito is biting you, proboscis fully inserted, and you brush him sideways, does it break his face off?
Just wondering.
Closer
The appliances are all back in place.
No microwave over the stove anymore. It was higher than Judy’s head and didn’t seem safe for handling hot food. We bought a countertop model that can sit just to the right of the stove. The perfect height. Now we only have a range hood above the stove.
And with the refrigerator and stove gone from our living room we have more space there again too.
Not done, but better every day. A little more work by the contractor tomorrow, then we get the weekend off again.
The backsplash has landed!
Two people. One day.
Appliances scheduled for reinstallation tomorrow.
The Casita
The little casita has been an excellent escape from the construction chaos at the house.
Time to move out though. It is reserved for another guest.
The house isn’t really ready for us to move back in, but we can have two rooms: the office in the front and the bedroom in the back. The kitchen looks more like a kitchen every day!
The Ubehebe Crater
Death Valley. Half a mile wide and 600 feet deep. About 1977.
Becky and Matt asking, “Can we run down it?” That was right before lunch.
No problem. It was a difficult slog to get back up through the loose gravel though. Their sandwiches were waiting for them when they finally made it back exhausted. Life is a learning experience.
