Thanks for the pics and report Alexa! Y'all look great and I know you had a great time hangin' out and shopping together. The Evil One came to mind when I saw the pic of the stuffer...LOL! Susie, Drew has grown into a nice looking young man. I can't believe how tall he is...seems it was just yesterday he was just a little boy. Thanks again for sharing you day with us! David

The Invisible One is finally reporting in. After last SundayÂs gathering, The Bug got me down, eliminating my ability to say anything the least bit witty, not that I could have matched the others at that, anyway. DH and I enjoyed everyoneÂs company immensely. It was wonderful to dine among GW celebrities Igloochic (the delightful, devoted mother of adorable Jesse -- I hope he is doing much better), Buehl (who I later realized is the Kitchen Forum FAQ compiler/poster), and cooperbailey (with whom I had several things in common). It would be fun to meet more GW folks, whenever and wherever. We are in Towson, MD, so I expect weÂll be headed south when it happens. Some have pronounced our kitchen "finished." Now, we all know that "done" is a relative term. I hastily took some pictures of our kitchen before last weekÂs dinner meeting, and the only thing really missing is a window treatment. However, I need to straighten up the counters, find the best angles, and gather all the spec details before preserving our kitchen for posterity in the Finished Kitchens Blog. That new project is definitely on my Someday List  another relative term. :-) Alice

Since I'm already in NJ I take the same route as Jerseygirl. Chickadee - you're in one of my favorite areas! When DH and I first married we lived in Philly for 4 years and often escaped on Sundays for a 'ride in the country' - which either meant heading to Lancaster or Bucks County. I tried to email you but when I click on your profile there isn't a 'Message' option in the upper right corner. I have one if you want to email me. How interesting that you had your knees replaced a week apart - that's a new one for me. My brother just had one knee done last week and he'll schedule his other one for this summer. I went up to HSS (Hospital for Special Surgery) in NYC.

I know that house! It is right around the corner from my mother's home. Yes, very lovely. I love old stone colonials. That street is not very far from the township transfer station where they take all the trash. Although Hillcrest is unaffected by it, houses on N. Woodbine have trash trucks going by all the time on their way to the transfer station. This house is on a charming street and you can walk to the center of Gladwyne. https://www.zillow.com/homes/for_sale/Lower-Merion-Township-PA/pmf,pf_pt/9965383_zpid/398868_rid/globalrelevanceex_sort/40.148963,-75.129662,39.902362,-75.569115_rect/10_zm/ This place needs some work but has an amazing location. https://www.zillow.com/homes/for_sale/Lower-Merion-Township-PA/pmf,pf_pt/9966214_zpid/398868_rid/globalrelevanceex_sort/40.148963,-75.129662,39.902362,-75.569115_rect/10_zm/5_p/ You should just let me pick out your house for you.
