The Boy needed a haircut... so he got a bit of a trim but will likely be getting a little bit more of a real cut here in the next few weeks - he's got great Einstein like hair though (its fun for mom and dad to play with).
Have been brewing beer in prep for our annual party - the Imperial IPA had a "robust" fermentation.... very thankful it was in the shower pan.
Work on the trim for the columns continues - got the shelves up and the ply facing stained, cut and installed for the upper part of the columns. The lower pieces are cut and 3 of them are about 50% done with finishing - they have a slight taper (1/2" over about 3 ft) for a very slight kind of pyramid effect.
Not that its real hard but we seem to do a bang-up job of finding/creating new projects for ourselves. We'd been planning these for a while but with the nice weather the last couple of weekends we were able to get started in earnest with some of the landscaping work building rock walls for some planting beds. The large pile of small river rock will eventually be scattered along the back of the house to prevent (or at least reduce the frequency of) little muddy footprints around the house.
