That little induction hotplate is actually a pretty reasonable heat source.  Certainly much easier to control than a camp stove.

Our contractor did the major demolition of the old kitchen today.  What may be good news: it looks to me that the house’s original fir floor may be intact under several layers of other flooring material. What may be bad news: my untrained eye wonders if the loose, flaky underlayment below the lowest layer of linoleum could be asbestos.  For both possibilities, only time will tell.

Lis and I took a walk in Auburndale Park today.  I didn’t bring my wildlife lens because of the threat of rain. So of course, we came across very photogenic and cooperative wood ducks. This was the best shot I could get of them.
