Pinto has a new (hardly used) refrigerator!
The house four doors up from me is owned by a ranching family from Salinas or thereabouts. Hardly ever used. They spend a week or two each year here and their kids come to the coast to surf every so often. Otherwise it's unoccupied. A second home. Nice folks from what little I've seen of them.
Either they are fixing to sell it or are actually moving in. A lot of remodeling, landscaping has been going on for a few weeks. Anyway, the remodeling crew had the fridge on the sidewalk today with a For Sale sign and a price.
In great shape. Asked the owner if he'd come down on the price some. We came to a good bargain. The crew had an appliance dolly on hand and we wheeled the piece to my back door. Tomorrow it goes into the kitchen!

Enjoy it!
It doesn't get any more "grown up" than that.
Or maybe the right word is "pathetic" ? 
Got the fridge into the walkway behind my house, tarped and taped it tight (we're having rain) yet with no clue how I'll get it into the house. There's a 2 - 3 foot stoop at the back door and a real narrow clearance all around. And it'll take a dolly plus some muscle to heft it in. So tomorrow is an SOS day to line up some help. It'll work out yet I had to laugh - you made a good on the spot deal, got it this far, now what?
