New Construction

As we were driving into Ruger Ranch, we passed a cement truck. We figured it must be for Bjorn and Rachel's place, so we drove out to check it out.

We found their builder, Eric Winther, working with a helper. They had just poured the footings. It was good to see someone else building. Our house had been the only activity for at least three years.

They are going to have a heck of a view, no?


Once we got to the house, Gerald started cutting and dry laying tile to complete the fireplace.

Meanwhile, I fussed over our latest purchase, an 8 x 11 braided rug. We'd been looking for a large braided rug for a long time. A good size rug of this style in good condition turned out to be much harder to find than we thought. Gerald found this one at an antiques mall in Chandler for about $125.




That night, we went into Rumors for our final pizza. We were very sad that Siggy decided to close at the end of February. Here he is, standing near Gerald.

On Siggy's right is Ron from Yarnell Emporium, fellow property owners John, JT, Robert and Diane Hussen, and our neighbor Kathleen Stowe.
