Cozy home

We try to visit Amanda and Tom in the Methow Vally several times a year. Of course we love spending time with them, but it's also fun watching the progress as they renovate their house, room by room. This picture is from our last trip, although you need to have seen the "before" to really appreciate the kitchen transformation. The beautiful cabinets are being painstakingly built by a local furniture maker. They're perfect for showing off Fiestaware.

And here's Tom after a long days' work!
