Good morning. And thanks everybody.

The first wall was set yesterday afternoon. Spacers for sure. Spacers used (and removed later when the time was right.) Mr. Boomer said the last time he did tile (5 houses ago) the spacers were hard plastic. These are better.

I tiptoed into the kitchen this morning. The tile is still where we left it. YAY!

(Hi, Nucky. Oh my, yes! You picked up on my Cliff reference. Cliff is my favorite Cheers character, going on and on. I always think about him when I launch into some tale. I could go on and on —and on, about all the projects we have taken on over the years.)

When we were young, we looked for houses that were in good shape but needed some updating. Now, in the Era of HGTV, we see those whippersnappers on “House Hunters,” whining, if a house is not to their perfect liking.

This little project we are doing now is kind of fun — so far.
