Good morning one and all, it's a beautiful morning here in Northern California. The birds are singing the sun is out drying off the little showers we had last night. My 2 new treasures from the SF Garden show seem to be adjusting to their new environment and no leaves dropping yet!
Yesterday we went to the GoodGuys Auto Show in Pleasanton. OMG I could not believe the number of people there. We left home about 8:00 am....did not arrive inside the fairgrounds until about 10:00 am. We were lined up in traffic on a major freeway (Interstate 680) for over an hour and 45 minutes, there were that many people going to the show. The only reason I can think of (since we've gone to the shows before and not that many people were there) is that no one wanted to stay home and watch TV with almost nothing on but the war. There were so many families there, unlike any show before. The only thing we purchased was K&N Performance Plus air filters for both of our vehicles. Supposed to help with better performance as well as improved gas mileage, and with the cost of gas today every little bit helps. Additionally, they have a 10 year 100,000 mile warranty, you don't replace them at every oil change....interesting, only time will tell.
We've finally got our flooring for the kitchen and family room. Now we need to find someone to install it. We have linoleum in the kitchen and wall to wall carpeting in the family room but we are going to lay down Prego laminate. I'm really excited about this and can't wait. My kitchen is 14' x 18' with an island, the family room is off of the kitchen and is what looks out to our backyard deck. The family room is 18' x 20' and we still have to pull up the old carpeting. Guess I better get busy looking for some quality installers and see about getting the bids. I'll take pictures when it's finally installed.
Looking forward to a great week, you all do the same.

Good luck in finding someone to do your installation.
Sounds like a good weekend. We are wanting to put tile in our kitchen and wood in our office, but have been thinking about doing it ourselves. THAT should be interesting.
