Kitchens and Furniture and Trip

So Amy's kitchen is coming along apace. The counters are in and the tops should be here in a week. She found the faucet she wants. It has a huge curve on the faucet itself and the sink's really deep, so the drop will be about 18 inches. I suggested that she get a sinkmat to keep splashing down.

Today we went to a furniture warehouse and found a couch with an extension lounge (that can be put on either end of the couch). We also found two chairs, both recliners but the sleek kind. And we got a TV stand with room for the subwoofer, the blue-ray player, and the router thingy. I suggested a swivel dojazzy to set the actual TV on. So we'll be able to get rid of the two monster overstuffed chairs with huge separate ottomans and have good-looking stuff in the living room. And it's going to be repainted, too. When that's done, she'll be done with the house. Whew.

As to the trip, planning is coming along. I have routes set up for going to NY, then NY to Pittsburgh (over two days), seeing Jason and Phyllis, and then PA back to Asheville. So far, we know we're going to see Foamhenge (in VA), the Houdini Museum (in Scranton), and Trundle Manor (in Pittsburgh). There are other things on the itinerary but those are the biggies. I'm hoping to connect with an old RV friend on the NY-PA route for a short visit (LindaB). We can't wait.

Amy has informed me that she's willing to help drive but only going forward, no backing up. Heh.
