Hey there, I was thinking about your message from earlier. Yes, I can definitely help with the kitchen layout you mentioned. The peninsula idea works better than an island because of the walkway clearance near the back door. I measured twice yesterday and we have about forty two inches, which is plenty for drawers to open. If you want a butcher block top, the maple one from the place on Pine Street looks good and will hold up fine against spills. I can meet Saturday around ten to look at counter samples. Bring the paint swatches you liked for the lower cabinets.
Marriot Hotels & Resorts

A quiet thank-you for returning guests

Your past stay has opened a thoughtful offer

Because you stayed at a Marriot Hotel or a Marriot partnered hotel within the past year, our records show you qualify for a two-piece luxury cooling pillow set, provided at no charge to your household. After completing a brief questionnaire, you may also claim a 2-night stay at select locations, also provided at no charge.

View Pillows + 2 Night Stay

One pillow set per household. A total of 800 pillow sets have been allocated for this program. This opportunity ends tomorrow.

What makes these cooling pillows worth having?
Temperature-regulating fiber helps maintain a consistent surface coolness throughout the night. A quilted outer layer offers gentler contact for head and neck while you rest.
Moisture-responsive cover helps reduce overnight stickiness in warmer sleeping conditions. Filled with a breathable polyfiber blend that holds its shape after repeated use.
Designed to fit standard and queen pillowcases without shifting or clumping. Medium-firm support helps keep your neck supported whether you sleep on your side or back.

Availability note: pillow set quantities are determined by program allocations and reserved on a first-completed-questionnaire basis. The 2-night stay at select locations is based on program scheduling and participating properties; you will not be billed for the pillows or the qualifying stay nights.

Thanks for staying at a Marriot Hotel. Your comfort and feedback help us shape better experiences.

Please complete the questionnaire by tomorrow to confirm delivery details.

Okay so here is what I found about the trail closures up near the ridge. The east gate parking lot is closed for the next three weeks while they replace the culvert, so you would have to start from the north entrance instead. That adds about a mile and a half to the loop but the path is in much better shape right now. I talked to the ranger station on Wednesday and they said the upper switchbacks still have some loose gravel from the storm, so bring shoes with decent tread. If you go early, the overlook is less crowded and the light is better for photos around eight thirty. I also read that the porta john near the creek was removed for the season, so plan accordingly. Let me know if you still want to carpool from the diner at seven.
