Floors and mirrors

The next time J.C. came up, he brought a load of pine Gerald had found on Craig's list for a really good price. Our plan was to use it for flooring. Gerald had not seen it, but had it tongue and grooved before delivery.










He was very pleased with the quality.













At long last, we were also able to bring up a mirror Gerald had made for the bathroom. He had been working on it for a long time.

When he got it and J.C. finally got it in place, he said, "Do you think it's big enough?"








We had a scheduled tour of the Bagdad mine on Friday, which was interesting. But it meant we didn't get a lot done.

Gerald finished grouting the kitchen floor. Here it is with all the cabinets in place.

I worked on painting cabinets for the utility room.





The weather this weekend was just beautiful. Mid-70s. The grasses at Maughn's ranches have turned the color of wheat, and the cottonwoods are golden. Sadly, I didn't have a camera with me at the right time to photograph it.

But I did manage to catch this sunset.

On a somber note, we heard that Siggi at Rumors Grill had a heart attack and has listed the restaurant for sale. He's decided he's ready to retire. The good news is that, for now, the restaurant will stay open. "Closed businesses don't sell," he said.
