Our new Ashland home is taking shape. The kitchen cabinets went from boxes to walls quickly. The countertops will take at least two weeks.
Meanwhile, the dining room serves as a flooring storage area and makeshift kitchen.
It has been microwave gourmet, but Sue remembered today that a camping stove arrived with our stuff from Mariposa last weekend. That and a new grill will help make meals a bit more interesting for the next month or so until the kitchen and flooring are completed.
Tonight, it was time to get away from the mess and take a picnic a few steps to downtown for another Oregon Shakespeare Festival Green Show. L.A.’s Versa-Style Dance Company wowed a lively audience with an energetic hip-hop performance.
Chocolate truffle ice cream was a perfect encore!

First of all .. I love the cabinets. SO fresh and clean looking. I can remember when we remodeled the kitchen in Redwood City; Matt was probably 18 mos old. Tom totally masked off the kitchen (he gutted the original 1950’s cabinets, stove, sink, walls, etc.) and I prepared microwave meals and got pretty good at it 🙂 Enjoy your new home and we look forward to our next visit!

Thanks, Ellen. Wish you could come show your microwave expertise. We are not very creative with it.
