02 Liberty lift

Oh! I am SO like that! I laid it on the floor in the store then took a couple of pieces home with me and put them out here in case it was the lighting or something. I kept them for a week and walked around them looking at them like a cat will do to a mouse that they've caught. I never got past the blurred images on the 18" tiles and I didn't want the 12" tiles so I took them all back. That afternoon I went to Home Depot and was just wandering and found an AMAZING deal on the 18" travertine and bought a box of tiles and took them home to look at. The price was comparable with the porcelain so we decided to give it a go.

So far, since it's still out in the garage in crates LOL, I don't regret it a bit.

Well, now you HAVE to send me a picture. It sounds beautiful! Billy Ray has been through this too, he REALLY went through remodeler's hell.

Our hardwood is solid 3/4" Maple plank. It's 3 1/2" wide and is cabin grade, so it has loads of color and looks a lot like hickory. I love the character of it. We drove all the way to Georgia to get it.

I'll bet they do! I love the idea of hand scraped but the prefinished stuff I have seen has been kind of - unimpressive. I'll bet your floors are beautiful.

Ok, send me some photos now!

There is a LOT of character in this house, Dickie and ME

Our house is only about 8 yearsold so it shouldn't be a big clash. I couldnt handle it if it were flawless, it would drive me insane keeping it that way.

GOUGE !!!!???????

AAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NO! SAY IT ISN"T SO!

We already have two . Do not know how they happened but they're there.

Have to move furniture from one side to the other this morning to get this mess done. Damn I'm going to be glad to have my computer back, this laptop keyboard sucks!

And don't forget paint scratches. Gotta have one of those.

Actually, Mr.H was really, really, glad I did it and not him!

Should I mentiont that I dumped my rig over at Moon Rocks the other weekend? Big ass hole in the sheetmetal behind the passenger side door.

and yes, I hope to get the web page up soon.

Yea, but... Yours is already broke in Jenn.

Hell, mine has been in the garage or the shop all summer. Just sitting there calling to me until I can't stand it and finally go for a drive.

I'll sure be glad when this remodeling thing is done. At least this part of the house the 'new' dining area will likely go through fall at this rate.

Likely the wisest words I have ever heard.

Heh heh, with apologies to Sheryl Crow...

She's better off now...

Didnt need to this time. Didnt go that far over and wasnt there very long.
