We’re writing to tell you the unfortunate news that our cat Booie was put to sleep on Thursday, April 20th, early in the morning. He was 17. Since we’ve been grieving, we’ve procrastinated putting this on the C.C. blog–probably because…
Interior upgrading!
Though Chris and I have been living in the coach for about 3 months now, we have yet to really do any big interior upgrades or renovating. That changed recently, when I worked on re-designing the toilet room and bathroom!…
