It was breakfast, and then a bike ride to Kollen park, and it looked good. We passed an angler who had just landed a big fish, not something Kelli likes to see, even though we now eat fish.
All the lawns on the way were being attended to, and bulk deliveries of mulch were happening everywhere.
Back at the ranch there were jobs to do. May has been a light month for sales, I have been wrapped up on the kitchen build, leaving little time for anything else, and our output has suffered.
We received handle samples this morning, this left us with a choice of satin nickel, dark nickel, and the original oil rubbed bronze. We whittled it down to satin nickel and oil rubbed bronze.
In the end we settled on the bronze, because they were less obvious and I liked the way it aged, with the handle area showing the bronze slightly brighter.

So the final step in the revamped kitchen agreed, now the painful task of ordering and paying for them. At least it will guarantee work for some five year olds in India.
We finally sold the dark dresser with the ash top to a couple with a couple of young children and another on the way. They were happy with it, haggling with the price, but we settled on a compromise and the drove away happy, we were happy with the sale.
