Getting ready for second floor - Érik a második emelet :)

It's been a while since I wrote anything here, but the life hasn't stopped...only for a couple of days at Thanksgiving:) How interesting it is that "big things" always happen when we are about to go somewhere (summer vacation, trip to San Diego and now our traditional Thanksgiving family get-together). Before we headed out to Half Moon Bay the last Tuesday morning, the big crane arrived and all the big beams were put up on top of the first floor. So now the workers can start working up there...The house is getting higher and higher...I'm afraid we're going to block the view from the neighbors :) But we'll have the best view in the neighborhood. I can picture myself sitting on the balcony and enjoying the great panoramic view of the mountains...But we're not there yet...:)

Egy ideje nem irtam a blogra, de az élet nem állt meg azóta sem...csak egy pár napra, Hálaadáskor. Milyen érdekes, hogy a "nagy dolgok" (értsd: látványos:-) mindig akkor történnek, amikor éppen útrakelünk valahova (nyári vakáció, San Diego-i kirándulás, vagy most a Hálaadás napi családi összejövetel). Mielőtt múlt kedd reggel elindultunk volna Half Moon Bay-be, megérkezett a nagy daru, ami beemelte az összes gerendát, ami a második emelethez kell, igy a munkások el tudnak kezdeni dolgozni fent. A ház kezd egyre magasabb lenni...Attól tartok el fogjuk takarni a kilátást a szomszédok elől:) Viszont nekünk lesz a legklasszabb kilátásunk. El tudom magam képzelni, ahogy ülök az erkélyen, és elvezem a hegyek panorámáját....Na de még nem tartunk ott...:)

Hello everyone! Üdv mindenkinek!

Still alive and kicking:) Még élünk és virulunk:)

The living room is Noemi's "ballrom" now:) - a nappali most éppen Noémi bálterme:) master bath Master bedroom...who is that ballerina? :) Szülői háló, és Noémi "balerina" :) tiling is done in the kitchen - burkolás kész a konyhában It's been more than a year since my last post....my bad:) Well, seems that our project is getting closer to the finish line...Thanks to my in-laws' generosity, we can keep going. Noemi's bedroom is done, so she could move in, too. Flooring and tiling is done throughout the house, now we're working on the details. Final plumbing, getting appliances, shopping for bathroom vanities etc. I can't wait for shopping for furniture and accessories...Hopefully soon:) Több mint egy éve irtam utoljára...az én hibám:) De úgy tűnik, közeledünk a célhoz. Köszönhetően a család segitségének, előre tudunk lépni ismét. Elkészült Noémi szobája, igy ő is beköltözhetett. A burkolás, csempézés kész, most már a rész...

What is it like to live in a motorhome? Milyen is egy lakókocsiban lakni?

Since it takes a few days for the concrete to dry, I thought to "take a brake" and show you around in our little, cozy motor home :) Though Wayne is an expert when it comes to living or traveling in a motorhome, I had no idea what it was like, until we first were "introduced" to this guy. It's a 1985 36' Titan, and still running. Of course a lot of stuff have been replaced or changed in it. Until about 3 years ago, my parents-in-law used it, and as far as I heard, they had had some adventurous trips, as far as Alaska, British Columbia etc. Well, seems that after 20 years it was time for a change, so they bought a nice new Rexhall push-out giant, and we "inherited" the old one. As a new "homeowner" I had to learn how everything worked. By now I've been familiar with most of them...air conditioning, gas stove and oven, ceiling fans, shower and bathroom (well, that's kind of an exaggeration, since there's only a sink and a toilet...
