to work on the Vegas house - part 2

8-27-13 to 8-29-13

Someday we are going to see what's down this road.  I imagine something creepy.
 

 
Stateline...

 
This is where I spent almost everyday of my life for 10 years...the giant flask in the sky:)

 
I saw this view almost every day from the stoplight by my house...

 
First, the AC repair man came by, and within an hour had the cold air blowing:)
 
 
Next, this old yucky stove
 
 
thought that it was 12:09 for many years
 
 
and needed to be replaced with this one I found on Craigslist.

 
Then, replace this 15 year old refrigerator
 
 
with this one that had been sitting in the garage for at least 2 years.  It was filthy inside and took me about three hours to get it clean, but it was well worth it for free...
 
 
After a trip to Home Depot, I could get started on the painting.
 
 
take down my old Pyrex shelf...

 
and plant some succulents in the flower box...
 
 
 
I went to the Habitat for Humanity Restore to look for some blinds and other building materials, but I didn't find anything, so I decided to go to Savers down the street.  I didn't see anything for the house, but few things I liked for me:) They were way over priced, so I left the thrift empty handed.
I loved this sheet, but not for $10.  Crazy Savers pricing:(
 
 
don't need any more canisters...

 
and I already have all of these...

 
Back to the house to pack up and water the plants.  The grapevine likes it when we come visit:)
 

then drive back to LA...
