The end of an era…

Well honey, I love you, but the time has come to part ways.



We can still be friends, right?


Yep, I finally got it done, I put the Corvette up for sale on Craig’s list.

Bathroom, days three and four

A big tip of the hat goes to Phillip for all his help over the past couple of days.  There’s no way I would have been able to get this 316 pound cast-iron tub into place without his help (or have put the plumbing togehter without his tools :)).


5 hours Saturday, 3 hours Sunday.

Don’t settle for just any podiatrist, make sure your new doctor has a specialty.

End of day two

A shorter day today (took a break for Rob and Sharon’s baby shower), only three hours. No more ugly vinyl floor, yay!

Vinyl is nice and all… but it’s gotta go.

End of day one.

After swinging a 5 pound sledge for 4 hours we are now short 3 walls, 2 shower doors and 1 bathtub.


I think we’ll sleep well tonight.

Aren’t going to reuse that tub?

How to remove a bathtub, caveman style.

I’m an idiot

True to form, I was in a hurry today for no particular reason, as a result fate smacked me in the back of the head.


I took the day off today to go with Paula up to Sausalito to get some tile for our bathroom.  On the way up there we were driving along highway 1 through San Francisco when the light in front of us turns yellow.  The truck next to us wasn’t slowing down so I thought, “what the heck, I’ll keep going too”.


There were two lights along the route with red light traffic cameras.  That was one of them.  There were two pretty flashes, one for the semi, one for me.  Great.


I guess the SF PD will be sending me a nice portrait via US Postal Service… I just hope my portrait turns out as nice as Steve’s (see bottom of page).

That shouldn’t be there

We’ve had some heavy winds this past week… this huge tree is across 4 lanes and a median.
