Meet Jake and Rusty. They're 6 weeks old and absolutely adorable. Rusty (in the back) is a little larger, squarer body shape, and nappy fur. Jake has the look of a tradition golden retriever, and is about a pound lighter than Rusty. They've been with us for a week and have reminded us what sleep deprivation is. Of course we're tearing apart the kitchen at the same time, so we've been keeping busy. All here is well, let us know how ya'll are doing.

Time flies when you're having fun.....

I don't know how long you thought it would be before we started renovations, but whoever had their money on 19 days wins!!! We decided to start on the kitchen right away and hopefully have it done by Thanksgiving. We've gotten a good start. Jim has most of the lower cabinets built and I've got a coat of primer on them. Appliances and counters have been picked out and we're ready to get started. We've been focusing on getting guest rooms ready so there's plenty of room whenever anyone wants to visit. We're ready! We're going to look at a couple of boats this weekend - I'll keep you posted on that. Tonight we're watching the Red Sox/Yankees game. It's the bottom of the 6th, so far so good. The weather has cooled considerably so we're able to get outside and enjoy the yard, maybe soon we can even go golfing. Hope everyone is doing well. Keep in touch!
