The Bathroom Remodeling Projects

We decided to replace our shower and bathroom floors with travertine stone tiles.  It has taken a few weeks to get the master bath done but it has been worth it.  I tore out the old shower and floors and rebuild the shower.

The shower was enclosed on all four sides except for a small door.  I took out the wall where the door was so the shower ended up U shaped.  It looks great.  Our neighbor Howdy Whipple installed the stone for the shower and the floor in that bathroom.

Following his example I just replaced the old floor in the main bathroom with the travertine stone tile.

Now I have to replace the baseboard and touch up some of the paint.  Then on the the entry way floor.  Hopefully I can get that done in the next few weeks.

Trip to Tombstone

 Jo and I planned for a few months to go visit Jared and Amelia at Fort Huachuca, Arizona, where Jared is in school.

 We took one day to visit the old town of Tombstone.  It was awesome.  It still had the feel of an old west town. Lots of town folks were strutting around and we also saw a reenactment of the shootout.
