Finishing up the Entertainment Center



Put Danish oil on the last of the wood pieces and trim for the Musingi entertainment center.  At last count, I was up to about 17 pints of Danish oil on the EC.  That does not count the 7 cans I took to Idaho Falls for Cristal to put on the EC after it was installed.  Cristal can by the oil by the gallon in Idaho, so I think she bought one or two gallons.  Lots of oil for the EC.




The "last" thing I need to do for the entertainment center is finish the door for the cabinet that will hold the surround sound.  Earlier I made this door and put the wood panel in the door.  This does not work too well with surround sound, so I made another door, or door frame.  Then Monday I made the small frame, about 1/4 inch thick to wrap the speaker cloth around the small frame, then set it in the door.

I think this is the last thing I need to do before we go back to Idaho Falls to install the doors.

Bike Ride



In my ward, I am one of the Laurel Advisors in the Young Women's.  In June, we are doing a Temple Walk, so every Saturday morning we are doing a walk to "get ready" for the walk.  With my knees, I am doing it on a bike, instead of walking.

Saturday we rode along the canal by the house and saw several sets of new, baby ducks.  Spring is such a treat!!

We are starting our Temple Walk at the Draper Temple, walking to the Jordan River Temple and finishing at the Oquirrh Hills Temple.  Three temples within walking distance.  Total of 15 miles.  We have stops planned along the way with food, drinks and speakers at each rest stop.  We have support crews planned for along the way with water and snacks.

Best thing, when we get back, the Relief Society has dinner planned for all the Young Women!!

Bailey



Bailey is Jacob and Becca's little girl.  Two years old and as sweet as can be!!  She loves her ba-pa.

Grandkids


Zoey and Parker were downtown with Mom on another adventure.  Borrow the picture from Mariah's Facebook post.  Parker broke his arm last week jumping off the monkey bars.  That did not slow him down.  He was climbing on tables the next day.





Bailey is Jacob and Becca's.  She is going to be the big sister in July and she is pumped.


Grandkids are great!!!

Spraying oil on the doors



Started spraying the 21 doors on Friday.  It was a bit windy and I did not want over spray going all over, so I made a spray booth!!  Lowes had a refrigerator box and we cut that opened.  Put a board across the top to put my hangers and then hung the doors from the hinges already installed on the doors.

Here are two doors hanging horizontally and ready to get sprayed.




Sprayed Watco Danish  Oil on the doors.  After I got a couple doors sprayed outside in the booth, then brought them in the shop, wiped the oil down and then set the doors to dry.  Did the same thing on Saturday. 

The doors are looking good with two coats of oil on them.
