Coffe Table Finished

Great team effort for this amazing coffee table, complete with felt pads, and shag rug - now what i am sayin.... 

The making of a coffee table

Tonight we started to make a coffee table (my idea inspired by Audrey). After purchasing necessary tools from Home Depot (pronounced Home Deepowe) for $63, we now almost have a table worthy of a $300 price tag. We were getting frustrated looking around furniture stores for tables that looked like s**t, with $200 price tags, so why not build your own. Here you can see us sanding down the wood, priming it and painting the first coat.



 

May 2006 - Moving to Denver

I have now moved to Denver, Colorado, to try out the mid-west American lifestyle. Everyone kept asking whether I was worried to move here, I wasn't as all is required is a plane ticket and a case full of clothes. Denver is a cosmopolitan town in the middle of the USA. It has some of the best snow conditions on the planet, and a great long lasting summer. It is known as the mile-high state because the state is a mile above sea level. Soon after moving here Audrey and I found an apartment on City Park, see the pic below of our first moving in meal. Our move was sponsored by the Rainer Fruit company.

Evening meal

The evening meal was in a castle hotel on the Loch Lomand shores.



 

More Cruising and Highland Games Pictures

 

A day of cruising and highland games

Today we went for a cruise on Loch Lomand, to a nearby island, where we partook in some highland games. We played the bagpipes, tug-o-war, toss the wood, throw the haggis and riddicule-the-rich (in here to see if he reads posts). Never been to Scotland before and throughly enjoyed the day, great weather, great people, great cruise, and a great evening to follow.
