He who casts the first stone

At last! We found a company that can install pavers and actually provides quotes and shows up on time. The company we are using is Western Pavers.

We have decided on a Belgard Pavers. They have a dublin cobble in the Sahara color. You can look at them here

They are doing the install this Wednesday and will be done by Friday! Now that fast! Hopefully their work will be top notch. From what we have seen of their work, it should be.

Did NBC cave?

So I looked at the i-Tunes music store tonight and see that they put episode one of Heroes online. But they don’t list if it has been edited. Being the cheapo I am, I won’t pay the $1.99 to find out.

if someone has bought the 1st episode, let me know.

things that make you go “huh?”

I was pouring over wikipedia today, when I noticed the random link. I came across this one:

New BBQ

Finally found the bbq and island to get.

I got a four burner unit with an infra-red searing burner. You can see the unit here.

This is a very cool unit, that will go into this island. The unit we are getting is just like this, only the right hand side is the same height as the middle piece.

The tile goes in

This weekend the rest of the copping was installed. Too many pieces of the copping were damages to finish the outside ring on the spa. They had to order more, and they should be here by tuesday.

The tile went in this weekend. It’s amazing how good it looks.

You can see how it looks around the skimmer with the copping

Tomorrow they will start installing the outside form for the spa, so we can extend the copping and attach the tile.

Again, I am dealing with a flakey company. We are trying to get a bid on the pavers, but the company we are working with has not provided us with a quote . They have until monday or we start looking for a new company.
