Happy 2013!
Happy New Year!
It is good to be back after a nice, long holiday break between Christmas and New Years. Hope you enjoyed the holidays and have have some renewed energy for the new year. I know I do.
Like many businesses in the remodeling and building industry, we saw a slight improvement in 2012, but are optimistic for 2013, as are some others. According to the article, “LIRA forecasts remodeling surge through end of 2012, into 2013,” an article found on Housing Zone.com, “LIRA data suggests that annual homeowner improvement spending may reach double-digit growth by the first quarter of 2013.” While that is good news for many remodelors, some people in the construction industry are still cautious. In fact, ” in the McGraw-Hill 2013 Construction Forecast recently released, it is predicted this year, and the next one, will probably be the same as 2012,” that according to, Construction Forecast 2013, an article found on About.com.
Regardless of the predictions out there, we all have plenty to be thankful for, and a steady climb back in the remodeling and construction industry is inevitable. Cheers to another year of fabricating and installing beautiful countertops for your home.
Happy New Year to all!

Four Beautiful Sisters
There are many gifts that God in the Universe did release
among them four beautiful sisters, Love, Hope, Joy and Peace
Share with others as much love as you can, because
she rids the world of pain
as long as she’s powered by your good works, Hope
never in vain
and when your hope is realized, you’ll reap the
rewards of joy so kind
and when conflict and war surround your body,
search for peace within your mind
You have so much to offer this world, so many
wonderful things you can be, keep the four sisters
with you as you shape your destiny.
–Zenobia G. Washington

One More Time…
I don’t know about you, but I love summer. Hopefully you are getting out and enjoying it. If you live in Minnesota, there’s a lot to do, including plenty of festivals. Speaking of festivals, we had the opportunity to take one in, over the weekend, up by our cabin. Forada Days is a small town festival, near Alexandria, Minnesota, that includes a variety of activities including a street dance, which is always a lot of fun. While we’ve been going to this street dance a number of years, we were especially excited to go this year, as we heard that Corey Stevens was the featured artist.
If you’re not familiar with Corey Stevens, he is an awesome rhythm & blues guitarist that has a sound similar to Stevie Ray Vaughn, or Eric Clayton. I have to admit, we were somewhat shocked that he was playing at such a small venue, but the music was great! Anyway—during a break, we had the opportunity to chat a little bit with Corey and asked, “What are you doing playing at Forada Days?” He smiled and responded, “I’m working! Yeah—I’ve gotta make a living.” I smiled back and said, “Good for you!”
We ended up purchasing a couple cd’s, and I thought to myself, now here is someone who has the right attitude about work and life. After-all, no matter the size of the crowd, this person is doing something he loves, is good at, and has a passion for.
I got to thinking a little more, and thought, “Funny thing, but a lot of us in the building and remodeling industry have had to have this same attitude over the last couple years.” While many of us experienced the “boom” years, with big projects and big profits, we’ve all had to adjust somewhat, as the economy turned. The big projects, turned into smaller ones, sometimes few and far between. While things are finally coming around, many of us had to get back to the basics and remember why we are doing what we are doing. Remember—it was the small projects that got us those bigger projects in the first place.
Let’s all let our passions move us forward. One more time…
Here’s a photo from the street dance I wanted to share:
