So here are some photos of the really fun downstairs bathroom. As you can see, the downstairs bathroom has predominantly a surfing and ocean theme to it.
Daddy's surfboard sits between the sink and the window. And, the towels have little surfboards on them, too.
Close-up of the valance above the window. It has an Elvis Blue Hawaii theme.
Daddy's Elvis Blue Hawaii album is above the sink.
Daddy's Blue Hawaii Elvis action figurine complete with a surfboard in its original box is displayed on the top shelf above the washer and dryer.
On the wall that separates the shower from the main part of the washer and dryer area, there is a fun tin wall hanging of a woody and surfboards.
Here is another photo that shows the shower and the washer and dryer.
Above is a photo of all the cute things displayed on the shelves Daddy built and hung above the washer and dryer.
Above is a close-up of Daddy's Hawaiian Tiki War God, "Ku." He sets on the right side of the top shelf and measures 13" tall.
A woody with a surfboard on the hood and a hula girl are on the right side of lower shelf.
A close-up shot of the Hawaiian hula girl.
A close-up of the 1941 Buick Woody with a surfboard on top of the hood.
The bottom shelf that hangs above the washer and dryer is full of things that are colorful and fun, as you can see.
Two fun pieces of wall art are displayed on the wall between the window and the shower.
Close-up of the shower curtain, which has a surfing theme.
Two surfing movie advertisements from 1963 and 1964 hang above the toilet.
View of the walls above the toilet is playful and fun.
A close-up of the fish net. The picture on the left is Mommy on the beach at Pt. Reyes in California. The middle print has two children running through the ocean shoreline and says, "It's a beautiful talent to know how to play!" The framed art on the right tells about "The Legend of the Sand Dollar." The fish net and sea rope originally hung in Mommy's first apartment after she graduated from college, and the wicker fish originally hung in Mommy's family's lake home.
The new washer and dryer Daddy recently bought is also located in the downstairs bathroom. The two shelves Daddy made hang above. More items will be added to the shelves. Once they are I'll have Mommy take another photo to add to my blog.
Meanwhile, some of the things on the shelves, in addition to the Blue Hawaii Elvis action doll, include: Mommy's fish collection she bought back at Pier One Imports in the late 1990s in Des Moines, and Daddy miniature 1967 VW bus and caravan. (See photos below.)
Daddy also recently installed a shelf at the bottom of the sink to make it more organized and finished looking. The photo below shows him in action.
Have a great week! ~ Robert
I'm sure in the end, it will be great a meal. I think it smells positively scrumptious! MMmmmmm!!!!! ~ Robert
Above is a photo of Mommy's Barbie Star 'Vette that she got from her mother and father back in 1976. Below is a photo of Mommy as an adult with the real deal ...
Well, I guess that's all I have to write about right now. I am going to go downstairs and relax in the formal living room. It is one of my favorite hang-out spots.
Have a terrific day!!! ~ Robert
One of my favorite things is when either Mommy or Daddy groom me. They see that I am groomed at least once but sometimes twice a day. As a Manx, they realize I have two lush coats of hair, and grooming limits the hairballs I end up getting. Plus, it is great for bonding with Mommy and Daddy. Above and below, are photos of Daddy grooming me in his recliner that is located in the family room.
Below is another long shot showing the family room and how it is adjacent to the formal living room. You can see my hair brush on the end table between the recliner and the love seat. Mommy's glass of lemonade is also on this same table in this photo below ...
Well, you have a great rest of the week! I'm off to the formal living room to take a nap. (See photo of me napping on the sofa in the formal living room below.) ~ Robert

So, yesterday Daddy worked at a car show in Pocahontas. Here are some photos of a few of the cool cars at the show. There were 91 car entries at the show.
Today Daddy continues to work on the shelves he is building for above the washer and dryer. It is a beautiful day temperature-wise here in Iowa today. A most perfect weekend day! ~ Robert
