Plywood vs Mortar

In Beaumont, while everyone was at Lowe's buying plywood, batteries and generators on Sunday morning to get ready for the hurricane, Dave was buying mortar!!!

I'm telling you, he can't stop.  He just took this as an opportunity to get some work done around the house. 

I'll post some pictures of the finally project later.  This is just a little preview.  Tomorrow, he'll be applying the grout and the backsplash will be finished!
