We used Distinctive Stone Interiors for fabrication and installation and were extremely happy. They sent us to one of the many stone yards to pick out our stone; I can't remember the name of the yard offhand.

Another panel on the dome fell in last night about 5pm. More snow, albeit nothing like last time, will be coming the next day or two. Reminds me of the winters as a kid. We've had it pretty soft for a lot of years. Last year was icy and cold with some snow but this year is cold and snowy so far. Not TOO bad ice-wise at least. I have groceries but can get out and about. I'll finish up my week's work today (Thursday) and off through the weekend. Jasdip, suggest to Teresa_mn that she try clearing out the cache and cookies in the browser. If that doesn't work, try a different browser. So many people are having trouble lately. I use Opera and nothing like these problems here. It's really the best browser out there in so many ways. Big decision to make here... should I go out and have a big old country style breakfast from a great little restaurant I like, or wait and belly-up to the hog trough later on? Decisions, decisions! Can only handle one of them in a day...

I already commented on this house, and came back later to look more and read more. Beautiful. But I am very disappointed to read all the comments directed at the person who gave an unflattering review. I was hoping people would ignore and let it go, but since that's not happening, I'm going to throw something out here. Sooner is a class act. She did an awesome job with her home, she asked for help tweaking, and she took some advice. She also.........ignored those who either didn't share her taste or were having an 'off' day. Some here should do the same. Sooner does not need defending, most who posted seem to love what she's done. And I think it is most unkind to mock someone else's decorating, no matter what the provocation. If I say I hate Sooner's kitchen, will 20 people look up my kitchen and tell me how ugly it is? Not nice, guys. Give it a rest, please. Most sincerely directed at a lot of people I have grown to enjoy and respect... Red

Distinctive Stone in Roseville. We were very impressed with them. First used them for kitchen counters-marble and soapstone. Then had them do a bathroom vanity in marble.
