Company!

We have had lots of drop by company and that is always a pleasant break from whatever chore we are on at the moment. Yesterday Pecan Bill and Kay stopped by. They had been to Colorado to visit their son Mike and are headed back to the Davenport Iowa area to stop in on their son Craig before heading home to Ohio.
We were very surprised and hope they can stay for much longer next time. If you are a regular reader of the blog you know who Bill and Kay are but if not I will tell you they are longtime friends and neighbors from Magnolia Park. We winter with them every year.

We are waiting on the drywallers. There are a few things to do yet but we could be ready for them in very short order. We are also waiting on Russ to come finish up the pocket doors. The hardest part of this whole business is the waiting game. When I look back at where we were when we started we have come a very long way...and we still have a fair amount left like, painting walls, trim work, flooring, bathroom installations, kitchen cabinets,sink and appliances. But we have come far enough this year for me to say if we do not get much farther it can wait till next summer. Next summer's end should be the end of anything major in the putting back together a house.
