Urbanna, Virginia, "the small drinking village with an oyster problem", hosts an Oyster Festival each year during the first weekend in November. Normally, we'd camp out with friends and enjoy bivalves and drinking and music and debauchery. Unfortunately, this year, we're still working on the house. But we took time off on Saturday to go down and enjoy the day.

And we made some progress in the upstairs bathroom. We laid another inch-and-a-half of cement in the shower to finalize the shower pan. Next stop: more tile. We also moved the tub in to get a sense of how the space would work out. We can't wait to be done with the bathroom. It's going to be fabulous.

The painter came this weekend to work on the trim. He couldn't make it out on Saturday, so most of the trim only has primer on it. Even so, it still looks great!
