White Squirrel Festival

This weekend, Heather and Eric Sewell came up from Columbia, SC for a visit. The following pictures shows some of the waterfalls we hiked on Saturday. Since is was 80+ degrees, we decided to go to Brevard, NC to attend the White Squirrel festival.

The local brewery made some White Squirrel Lager, so we had to have some during lunch. If the beer would have served with a slice of orange, it could have passed for a Blue Moon. Prior to lunch, we visited Brevard College so Heather and Eric could see a real "white" squirrel. Heather tried to bribe the squirrel with nuts, but they were too smart and stayed up in the trees!

House Update

Since we have been getting some requests to update the blog, here are some new photo's. The weather has been cooperating, so the pavers and the landscaping are almost complete. With any luck, the driveway will be asphalted by next Friday.

The kitchen cabinets are installed and awaiting granite measurement. This is scheduled for May 13th with a granite install date of May 28th.

The floors have been sanded and the first coat of poly is on. This week the main floor doors get hung and some trim put up. The painter is also suppose to put the second coat of paint on.

Finally, the outside deck is complete. The only area remaining outside is to screen in the porch area by our bedroom.
