San Dimas House Projects
Since we have sold this house - we won't be doing anything more on it :)
I am always working on various things around the house - and there are
always a couple of projects lurking. The last Major Project was to prep the
house for sale. My brother Carl and I spent over a week painting every room.
We also had a couple of things done that we should have done years ago...

Kitchen Makeover
The kitchen is completely rebuilt now (see Heather's
kitchen page for details). I did all the work except for the new
plumbing lines (I hate plumbing) and putting down the Corian countertop.
This included rebuilding the walls, moving the drain line for the sink,
moving a gas line, shifting a doorway, and installing the new cabinetry.
Back Yard
When we moved in there were 2 evil trees and weeds.
After 10 years we finally installed a pool
and laid grass in the remaining yard. It looked much better.
