A couple of weekends we went up to see Casey and took a little day trip to the Ben & Jerry's factory in Burlington VT. Considering it was a weekend and the factory was working, we still got to see the plant and have a little sample of ice cream. The thing that amazed me the most is that every day each employee goes home with 3 containers of ice cream. Pretty cool. The tour guide said that they use the ice cream to barter for services from other businesses (i.e. the plumber). Nice picture of Casey and Kevin.
Last weekend Tom and Alicia were up from North Carolina. We stopped by to say hello and Tom asked if we were interested in their desk unit. It's a nice one so we said yes. It ended up in Casey's room and looks really nice. So Casey, don't worry, we didn't go through any of your stuff. We just moved a few things around, did some serious vacuuming and dusting and left you a big box of things to go through.
The kittens loved the open side window. Casey, your computer was on because after I set up your computer on your new desk I wanted to make sure it was running. Everything's cool.
Finally, today we started our basement waterproofing. The basement is carefully wrapped in plastic to prevent the concrete dust from getting all over everything. Unfortunately, we probably should have wrapped the entire house as there is concrete dust on the first floor as well. After this is complete on Friday I will spend the entire weekend dusting and vacuuming. Hopefully we will end up with a very dry basement.
Behind the plastic curtain is all of the furniture and stuff from our basement. Hopefully this will spur us into getting rid of some of the excess.
