Hello all,
Klondike is having the time of his life with us! His favorite activities include marking every possible tree or bush, cuddling, and keeping the yard chipmunk free. He has been dreaming heavily lately also. He runs and barks in his sleep, which is cute until you get kicked in the middle of the night!
We have a pack of coyotes living on our street. So, my friends at school joke that the coyotes think he is cream filled. Now he has a summer do, so they are calling him lowfat.
Many projects are coming along in the den, some have recently been completed:
Our bed turned out pretty good considering the whole thing was made from one sheet of MDF and a 4x4. Sasha spent many hours sanding to achieve the "piano black" we were looking for. Check out the pics
Sasha's whale chalkboards are turning out awesome. So far she has cut them out of CDX, rounded the edges off, filled the knot holes, and painted the backsides. All that is left is to paint the fronts with chalk paint and splice the hanging rope.
We've got a 15' row boat going on right now thats about to get planked up here in the next week or two. We'll post some pictures of that in the next blog.
Lastly, we went on a hike up Mount Townsend a little while back. There was still some unexpected snow up there, and when we hit the peak we got clouded in so the view was unavailable, but we still had fun and got a few good pics.
p.s. Check out this article I wrote about a Dale Nordlund an his skiff!
