Plan to work on the Beach House putting in a couple of windows in the garage and mow the lawn. Probably will spend half of it down there and the other half working on the house here and some on the car.

I hate hearing you talk about the 'beach house'. We had a cottage that we sold about 7 years ago. It was move or lose my job, then they changed their minds. I really miss the place, made some great friends up there and had a lot fun. Now when a holiday weekend comes along we're lost, don't know what to do because before it was always head up north.

I love that term beach house,really! My mother in law who just passed would really get in to using that term at her bridge club meetings at the Country Club. Not a mean spirited post.

Beach house does have a nice ring to it, sounds so much better than cottage. Ours wasn't really a cottage, 26' x 40' double wide. 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths. 6" insulated walls, we used it year around, never shut it down for the winter.

Default My 4th weekend

Mornings have been starting around 5:30am and finally finished the garage after 2 years of working on it part time. Got all the windows finished, blinds hung, painted, and work bench done. Been painting the back of the garage and the side. I will have a place to put the Chevelle in when and if I finally get to drive it down. Started on the front of the house with a new windows going in and a new garage door and front door and then new siding like the back. Bottom line owning a beach house requires a lot of maintenance especially when it is 70 years old. Glad I got a 4 day weekend.
