Not so inviting

Well, for those of you who have slept here, it doesn't look so comfortable anymore, does it? This is the guest room. If you look at the far left of the picture, you can see where we ripped a piece of the wainscoating off the wall (thanks Lisa!). We wanted a piece to take with us when looking at floor and paint samples. The bottom of the board had major termite damage, which is not surprising.

For the floors, we are beginning to think that we should not buy the cherry we initially looked at. There are a number of other interesting options for half as much, which means saving us over $4k. That's a substantial amount of money. Demolition is supposed to start this week or the next. I went to the door place today and I think we are close to making a decision on the type of doors to use, both for the inside doors, and all the doors leading to the outside.

We have been dropping the dogs off at the old house when they need to be alone for quite a while because we don't have a dog door setup here yet. Next weekend, we need to get that done. We are going to use a piece of wood to make a dog door that will fit into the sliding door that leads to the backyard. It should work....We've kind of slowed down on organizing over here. It feels nice to be a bit of a slug and relax some. We had our first company this weekend too, with visits from Lisa & Jim. Glad to see them both at the temporary digs!

Our neighbor shot a short movie of the Pod being loaded onto the truck. I need to piece it together, but hope to have it posted in the next few days.
