We've gotten a lot of improvements done so far of course, but there is still so much more to take care of. I'm hoping I can remember it all..it's been a while since we have made a formal To-Do list, but I'm going to try to list all the things we had on our "list" that we've completed, and the things we still need to do - along with nice little categories and commentary (in blue) of course. Some are projects we plan on doing in the near future, and some are long-term projects.
