Nice trip to Rhode Island

Sorry this is a couple days late, the last couple of days the blogger editor wouldn't let me upload the pictures for reasons I don't understand. 

 

I didn't do too much during the week last week, but I did pick up another couple of dressers.  The first one I picked up was actually quite nice.  It did not survive the drive back in the truck though.  When I picked it up, the door on the right was fine, and the piece of facing was still intact, the backing came off, etcetera.

 

I got the back reinstalled and got it put in the master bedroom for now until I decide whether to fix it or chuck it.

 

Instead I went and picked up another one.  I wanted one a touch deeper since the freezer is sitting on it, but it did fit, barely.  

 

Last weekend I went and visited Tim down in Rhode Island.  I went swimming (I had forgotten how buoyant you are in salt water), and we (Tim's son, wife, and I) visited  the Breakers mansion and did the cliff walk.  The mansion was built by the Vanderbilt family as a "summer home".  Must be nice to be that wealthy.  All the photos are at: https://photobucket.com/share/45f04ada-dc69-42ec-8341-1b0e77a7ba06 
Here are a couple of highlights though:

 

The cliff walk was quite nice too.  It reminded me a lot of Montauk to be honest.  I enjoy being by the water though. The complete set of pictures are at: https://photobucket.com/share/d84e784e-3e9e-4624-af49-de7b91e5dd3e

 

 

 

The guy came today to finish up repairing the mini-splits, so the compressor and leaks have been fixed on the other unit.  They both cool again.  It is a bit annoying to spend 13 grand on them one year and then have to spend another grand repairing them 1 year later, but oh well.  Fingers crossed they last better this time.

I think I caught something last weekend, so I haven't been too active after work this week.  It has been rather hot again too.
