A Steamy situation...

The Steam generator has been installed for over a year but was not hooked up, we finally finished some connections and it is up and running..... It works great.... The steam emitter has a depression on the top for oils like Eucalyptus or Lavender...

Audio System Updates

One of the challenges that we had when we first installed our audio system was that we couldn't afford the fancy Russound media server that goes with our Russound amplifier. A solution that we could afford was to install a mac mini from Apple Computer and hook it to our amplifier via the Russound iBridge Bay kit. It allows us to wirelessly access the system and change the music from anywhere in the house via laptop. Our friends Mike and Jeff came from Chicago this past weekend and hooked it all up, they also programmed an RTI universal remote control for our TV room so that we could get rid of the 5 remote controls that we had been fighting with and use only one. It's an amazingly elegant solution and we are very grateful for their help with this project. Here it is: http://www.rticorp.com/products/T2plus.html

Mirrors Galore

Guest Bathroom 3rd Floor Bathroom We liked the wall-to-wall mirror in the master bathroom so much that we had the mirror people come back and install mirrors over the sinks in the guest bathroom and in the 3rd floor bathroom. If you live in the Sacramento area and need custom glass or mirrors installed, we HIGHLY recommend `Accent Shower Door', they do great work.
