Tuesday

It's been sooooo good to have Ron and Marlene here

and the past two weeks have held

so much work .... THANKS GUYS!!!

and also lots of sightseeing and laughter.

Their return flight yesterday was cancelled -

this morning Ron suggested we 'pick any date from now til Dec'

and see about rebooking their flights back to Vancouver.

Glad they are here another week - glad they can go home next Monday.

Gary and Ron put wallpaper on hallway walls yesterday

and first thing this morning while the paper lasted...

more paper on order to complete upstairs walls.

Dietmar and Renate came to work today -

Renate cooked yummy chicken soup for lunch;

Olga came this morning to begin grouting the kitchen floor

- it's a bigger job when the tiles are small;

this afternoon Gary, Ron and Marlene are working on the floor.

The goal is to install kitchen appliances and work counters tomorrow evening.

And after work today - we're going to find Berlin's famous 'bratwurst'
