Roll Out the Red... (I Mean Berber) Carpet!

My fiance and I are still renovating our home, and we have made so much progress! We're now ready to start thinking about floor coverings, and with perfect timing! UFS actually has many types of laminate wood flooring, vinyl flooring, and carpet-- and carpet remnants are 50% off right now! I was pleasantly surprised by the low prices and wide selections.
Our house has hardwood floors in almost all rooms (which we plan on refinishing), but the bathrooms need new flooring. We'll probably put vinyl flooring in the bathrooms-- something similar to these.
There is another room where I think I'd like to have Berber carpet installed. UFS carries three brands of this tight loop carpet, and prices per sq. ft. start at $0.69! I think this carpet will give the room a softer, cozier feel than the hardwood floors, plus it's comfortable all year round, and best of all-- easy to clean!

Let's Go Fishing!

My mother always says that right around Mother's Day is the best time of the year for crappie fishing. As a child I remember fishing in the spring at our lake. For a few weeks, crappie fishing was really great and we could reel in several fish each hour. I love that feeling of excitement when you feel a fish bite, and the fight between you and the fish begins.

Everyday when I walk in the door at UFS I think about how much I want to go fishing when I see all the fishing equipment for sale. Look how nice this pole is-- it would be great for crappie fishing.


With all this quality fishing gear, all I need after I leave UFS is a good fishing place.... probably not this one!
