Keiley: What's Cool

So what is cool?

I'm sure this is a question that has stymied the masses since the days of Plato.

sure Fonzie is cool.

But he is a person. "Who is cool?" is a totally different question than "What?".

Few could argue the "coolness" of some things. The Mazaratti, for example ranks up there. Hard to deny the wow factor as one streams by you almost silently on the TCH doing 140 in the 100 zone, as your '96 GMC 1500 plods along pulling the little U-Haul trailer full of used cabinets, and an oven you scored on Kijiji.

Perhaps for me the cool factor has deteriorated. What I am convinced is awesome now is plumbing. Yes. indoor running hot and cold water. I've mentioned on this website before the step change in civilization development with the introduction of indoor plumbing, and now that I can brush my teeth indoors I'm blown away at just how cool it is. Never mind not having to tramp into the woods with a roll of TP late at night to go #2.

So the cabin advances. Most of the progress just can't be readily seen. I't electrical, plumbing, stairs etc.. All in all it's starting to turn into a place that's great to visit.

John only has the stairs left to do. He is trying out a new plan that will hopefully appear as though the treads are floating. can't wait to see the final product. No doubt he did a great job on the mud room addition at the end of the deck. I like the scallop he has done so tall folks like jill, Don and Hoop don't hit their head.
