End of October

I finally got to painting the hole in the hallway that I patched the week I moved in, over 5 years ago. And some picture molding went up along with more paint. Ingrid got some new hats and walked them up Mt. Tabor with her ma.

Garden Potatos

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

After losing a tug-of-war match with Tabitha I went outside and scared myself with a new dado blade while making a new bookshelf.
