March was much cooler than usually – the snow was not gone as it usually is at the beginning of the month, and the golf courses did not open until the end of March, rather than the beginning.  We took a short break to fly to Victoria to enjoy the cherry blossoms, a concert, and visits with several cousins and my aunt.  Gave a lecture on government at the University, and found a brochure for the seminar on NK earlier in the month.

Continued work on the front closet, installing maple gable/sliding door stop, and a tall shoe cabinet for Mizuho.  Next will be a cabinet on top of the lower closet cabinet, then sliding doors (still thinking about how to make and install).

Installed some maple/cherry drawer fronts in the kitchen, and Coop installed some undercabinet lights.  Unfortunately, the latest set of drawer fronts did not finish the same as the first set (13 coincidentally).  So, after everything else is done, I will redo the first set and hopefully use them elsewhere.  Building the house certainly has been a learning experience 🙂

And Mizuho set up the Ohinasama dolls. These are over 80 years old (given to her mother when she was 3 years old) and are used to mark Children’s Day in early March but M likes to put them out in early April when spring is here.  Stereo and car update next month, along with some more house progress.
