Rip out that carpet and install the hardwood!


O.K. the carpet is gone and now starts the figuring and math and
measuring, again and again.  A lot of time is needed to do this.

If Wayne stares long enough at the steps, they will speak to him.

No job is complete without POWER TOOLS.

Getting there

This WILL fit.

Looking good, dry run before the very, very,  permanent adhesive.

Does this look good or what?  More to come...

Baking a cake is so easy.

This cake is ready. Let me tell you how to bake your own cake.
First, your Mor Mor has to crack some eggs into the bowl.
Catching them is fun to do but, then you have to get cleaned up.
(I speak from experience.)
Slowly add some oil.
Stirring is next.

The double handed method is even better.

Scoop and Pour, it's a technique to master.
And now you have to wait, but watching is also fun.

See how easy it is to bake a cake!

Feeding the birds is fun.


Everyone always tells me to smile while
I am doing serious work.
O.K., I am smiling.
Here, birds, come get your seeds.
Here they come.

When it's cold and the ice is eight inches thick, this is what you can do.
