Track Day, Bro! Bro. Bro! Track Day Bro! Bro… Bro! Track Day! and then we hi-five and watch Fast and the Furious Seventeen. No. It’s nothing like that, at all. Despite the crazy hardware that shows up, there’s a very friendly camaraderie amongst the people that show up and actually drive. It’s a great atmosphere […]
Kids are adorable. Well, Charlie is adorable. I can’t vouch for your kid. We promised Charlie a Christmas Tree. I love a real tree. Sure, you can buy the ones that are already lit, perfectly proportioned, and ready to hold a Target’s worth of ornaments. But you’re missing out on the trail of needles, the […]

Finished(ish)! Well it’s been a long time since I’ve updated the blog. Coincidentally, the project itself has been a long time coming. We just got our cabinets in a little over a week ago. I left, went to Africa, came back, ordered the countertop, and waited. For days. Then weeks. Then a month. It took about 45 days for […]
I finished the foyer! Well, I finished the hardwood in the foyer. There’s still trim to do, but what’s important is that I finished the foyer! There was a really intricate piece that had to be cut next to the stairs. Because of the shape of the doorway, I had to butt two boards in the middle […]
