The Unpacking Continues

We came home from Carlsbad, unpacked our suitcases and promptly repacked everything for a quick visit to our Madison digs.  We had theater tickets for Saturday night and figured we could get in a little more unpacking.  We spent all day Saturday - well after a brief morning walk and a stop at the now active farmer's market for some breakfast treats (a cinnamon and a pecan roll) - unpacking more boxes.  We made a lot of progress as we got all the boxed up kitchen, living room, and guest bedroom items unwrapped.  There was enough time left over for us to tackle getting the living room bookshelves organized.  Probably about 95% of the way there, just need to figure out how to now arrange them to allow new additional books to be added without having to move everything again.  We did enjoy having the elevator in our unit to transfer boxes between the two floors.  Although it was challenging a few time to actually get a person in it to operate the controls.

We also decided to completely rearrange the guest bedroom.  Jo decided she didn't like the layout of the furniture from what we told the movers.  So we landed up moving 80% of the items in the bedroom - would have been better for my back if we had figured that out while the burly movers were here, but we managed.  So we are making progress and should only need another couple of visits to get it reasonably squared away.

That evening we enjoyed the Broadway production of "A Bronx Tale".  Excellent show and well performed.  It was a nice way to relax after our day on our feet.
