We've been dying to share this with you since Christmas when we got hold of this CD from the "Sacred Shakers". Every tune on this disc will have you tapping your toes, and its all music that your mom (and your priest) would approve of.
We arrived in Vermont over the weekend for brief winter vacation. We stopped on the way at our favorite grocery store for essential provisions, including local New England cheeses! That and the new iPod seemed to make the trip fly by! As we look out snow is falling lightly, and we are luxuriating in our beds drinking tea waiting for the lifts to open.
Time for a brief Spruce Street update. First, enjoy the view of the stained glass from outside the house. This lovely sight greets us everytime we arrive with our tool boxes and paint brushes. Thanks to Nick for this inspiring contribution. Next, you can see the addition of back-splash tiles (and a dog) make the kitchen a real home-from-home. Thanks to Mark and Jen (and Kokee) for their help wth this! In other news, the new floor is now installed in the den, and doors are almost ready to be re-hung for the adjoining closet and half-bath. After that we're moving on to the basement and the garage (and we can even see light at the end of the tunnel!). Finally, this week Bruno received his mandatory Rhode Island training in lead-paint abatement. As part of this he discovered a few small items that we need to go back and fix, but it is another step closer to becoming landlords! This weekend we're planning a run to the dump and a clean out of the basement. Sounds like fun, eh?
