Laying the Floor Tiles

Floor Tiles

Dad came up today to work on the tile floor. He also put in the baseboards and we put the vanity into place. The tiles were not all installed because for some reason we had two different types of tiles. The ones that we had picked up in individual form were the ones that Dad put down and were also the ones that Allison approved. We also lost some time because of the sewer line backup in the basement. Our plumber came over and snaked the house trap with a closet snake. It cleared right up but we have a new project to do after the bathroom is finished. We’ll have to dig up the floor in that part of the basement to fix the house trap.

new grill plates

It is grilling season again and we realized that my grill had some rough grill plates on it. They were rusting and flaking and so not safe. I found some replacement stainless steel grill plates on Amazon.com that would fit our grill. Allison and the kids got them for me for Father’s Day. I’m looking forward to using them.

Dad came up today and completed the tiles on the shower. They came out really nice.
