Chairs etc.

Well you can see I am back to my refinishing/painting furniture phase.  Two chairs.  Maple and $1 each.  Heirloom white spraypaint from Ace Hardware.  As you can see  - not quite finished.  But will be for sale on Saturday at the annual Newton Citywide garage sale. Aren't they cute?

After the race and recovery.

Brian and Nickaila Half Marathon April 30, 2011

This was the very beginning of the race. They are full of energy. They finished in about 2:22 if I recall.  Great job both of you. There were over 1000 people in this race.  It was a beautiful day. Mike and I went to the Riverside Cafe for breakfast and then went back to the race to see the finish.  Hurrah for them.!

Spring has sprung!

The trees.... glorious trees.... around here have been beautiful.  Aren't they gorgeous?
