Last weekend we disassembled the old bunk beds at the house and replaced them with new ones.

The old ones had served us well, but one of them had been damaged at some point and both of them made too much noise.

We've finally added a Features section to the site. It includes some often asked questions about the floorplan, kitchen supplies, and what to bring to our beach house vacation rental.

Last weekend was a big weekend for improvements to the beach house.

Dana is on her way home with a Zenith surround sound theater system with built in dvd and vcr. I normally am not a fan of integrated systems, but this one has a great feature set and the reviews are very good.

The nice thing about having the receiver, vcr, and dvd player integrated is that it will mean a lot fewer remotes to worry about and less cabling. It will also be the first time that I've had a chance to test surround sound on a vhs tape.

Now all we need is a big popcorn maker. :-)

We purchased a big screen television this evening for the beach house. It is a Toshiba 43" television. Satellite television was installed last weekend so our entertainment center is shaping up nicely. Rockaway Beach Cinemas 1 theater will open soon. :-)

The only remaining items for the entertainment center are a receiver and speakers. We will also need to modify the bookshelf in the living room to allow the big screen television to fit in that space.

I can't wait to watch a football game on the big screen and then go play football on the beach.
