I'm Back!

After several busy weeks, I'm back.
Well the news around here is pretty boring. We've mostly been working on the front yard and on the inside of the house. We pulled out the old concrete sidewalk and we are in the process of replacing it with a "flagstone" sidewalk framed with landscaping timbers. We also pulled out the old stone flower beds around the big tree and in front of the boxwood. I'm gonna use the pieces from this to build some flower/vegetable beds in the backyard.
We finally got a new couch. Our old one was getting really sad, and Leo, bless his heart, had permanently attached his smell to the cushions. We got very lucky and found a 2000 dollar couch on sale at a going out of business sale for 600 dollars. The only problem is....its red. I'm still trying to figure out if I want to completely change my living room...which is now brown and blue...or if I want to have a custom slipcover made for the couch, in blue denim of course.
This past Saturday we went to Thunder over Louisville. What's Thunder Over Louisville, many of you will ask. "Thunder" as its called here in town is the kick off to the Kentucky Derby Festival. Its also one of the coolest airshows...I saw the B2 Stealth Bomber for the second time this year... :) and its the largest fireworks show in the Western Hemisphere. Anyway, the Derby is a pretty big deal around here...its basically the best time of year to be in Louisville, because there's plenty to do.
Well, that's pretty much the highlights of what's been going on lately....
I have some photos from a walk I took in Old Louisville a couple of weekends ago. Those will be coming soon.
