Surprise

Marcos comes by to take pictures of the backsplash - I don't think he's done one like it before - Mattias does "fix-its." Ray wants to do the walk-through but I'm at work and can't get away, so it will have to be Friday.

John later tells me I have a surprise when I get home. When I arrive, he is sitting on the steps, looking hot and tired. He had just finished taking up the last of the dreaded underlayment, the stuff with 1- 1/2" staples every two inches. He had also cleaned it up. I had expected to help him Thursday and Friday - he took care of it as a favor to me, and it was very sweet.
