    So who is holding up the tree and who is standing? I might not make it to this year's GTG, but trying to put faces and names together.

    That is Walt standing and Redneck sleeping. I was sure I had another one of him sleeping in a lawn chair right by the campfire but can't seem to find it right now. Someone asked me if they should wake him and I asked why. Leave him alone! He looked comfortable to me.

    That's why I didn't find it. The group picture was taken with a different camera and did not turn out too well and can't blow it up either. But here it is.

    Holy crap. 71* now. Beautiful day.
    My 92 year old mother lives with us. She is not suppose to be left alone and my wife had a doctors appointment this morning. I spent the morning inside with mom. My wife got home 12:30 pm and I was off to the grocery.
    Made up 2 ham loafs. They are in the oven now.
    I have been remodeling the living room. Painted the 1/4 round trim pieces today. Hopefully we will get them installed over the weekend. Job done.:yes::D
    I don't have a good before picture but here goes.
    Before:

    After:

    Kind of a big transaction. Gets me wanting to do the rooms. Flooring paint and everything around $1000. Petty cheap for the transaction.

    Loving it. Wish I would have listen to people here. They said a raised hearth. I didn't raise it.
    I had a little trouble with shipping. I was having it shipped to my ex-son in law's place of business. The shipping company had a neighboring town listed. I gave them the other address and they said it was in another neighboring town. After arguing with slate depot and the trucking company, I had to drive to Columbus to pick them up at the terminal, about 80 miles round trip, at an addition $25 charge.
    Looking at the trucking company's service area, we were right at (about 8 miles south) of their northern most service area. I fell like I was duped because they didn't want to run a truck up here. Not Slate Depot's problem but I wasn't happy about it.
