We continue to work on the counter trim but still have to make a final decision on the backsplash. Alesa wanted to not have a backsplash but now thinks it might look too bare.
Trip Log
October 4, 2011
And the weather has cooled down considerably, not bad for the Fall. Saturday was a catch up day with a lot of little projects.
September 30, 2011
The installers showed up at 8:30 on Thursday morning and were done and on their way by 9:15 and they even took the old countertops away. They were able to do the "L" shaped counter out of a single piece of Zodiaq, no seams!

It has been a medical week. They came to measure for our new countertops last Monday then we went to a Medicare seminar. It's getting to be that time. On Tuesday morning I went to the VA hospital in Philadelphia for a four day stay.
September 18, 2011
Tomorrow they come to measure for the new kitchen countertops so we pulled off the old ones to refinish the walls and retrofit the cabinets for the Zodiaq countertops. We aren't going to have a backsplash or the same overhang so more of the wall and cabinet fronts will be visible.
September 10, 2011
Today is 9/10/11 and we continue to settle in. We revisited our kitchen countertop quotes and will order on Monday. Mike and the girls came over for a visit today and Jeff & Danielle brought Bailey and Bridget over to spend the weekend.
September 8, 2011
We left Lampe at around 11 am on Tuesday and arrived home around 6:15 that evening. The weather was clear when we started but we got stuck behind a slow truck for about 50 miles. It got as low as 5 mph up the hills.
September 3, 2011
Today was 'Take your little brother to the zoo' day. Since Bob and and Cathy haven't been to the zoo for a few years we picked them up and took them to the zoo. It's another hot and humid day so we then went to Whippie Dip for some black raspberry ice cream.
September 3, 2011
We head home on Tuesday and we are ready. It has been another great summer but getting a little redundant. Last Saturday we biked around the peninsula and Sunday Lynn & Tony spent the night. It was hectic because they were flying home on Monday and their flight was cancelled due to Irene.
August 26, 2011
Monday we drove out to the new Erie Bluffs State Park and took a little walk. We also checked out Virginia's Beach campground and Camp Fitch. Tuesday we golfed 18 at Crab Apple Ridge.
