Yes, I am still here. And there

I know I said "Stay Tuned" This is an update, and I will try to fill you in on what has happend in the past eight months. Here's the short version - We spent the summer in Milwaukee, and had a great time.

We came back to Houston in October with some family from Germany in tow, and had a great time. 

We flew back to Milwaukee a couple of times since then, and, yes, had a great time. 

We are now close to having a final design for some minor modifications to the Bogk House to make it easier (for us) to live in. Mainly kitchen and bathrooms (we do have some restrictions on what we can do with the interior, which is as it should be) 

 But how about some photos?

Doreen tracked down the original Bogk rug and we went to investigate the colors. This was an interesting task, and rather fun
