Lake Sammamish, WA, and the beginning of the Sammamish River. A few minutes away from my house. Looked up and a bald eagle was right above me in a tree. So close! It wasn't a very tall tree, for once. Turned around and drifted with my eyes full of Mt Rainier.

And then I swam! So nice. The lake buoy said 62 F, but it felt nicer than that (and I was on the other half of the lake).

Hope you all have a fantastic long weekend coming up!

Hi all,

I have honed carrara marble countertops that I want to reseal. They have lots of character (etching, courtesy of wine glasses and friends dropping acidic stuff on them) that I don't think I will take care of now because I don't feel qualified... But I want to remove a couple stains and reseal.

The stains are from the rubber feet of my espresso machine (plus maybe flying coffee particles?) before I realized that they were leeching into the countertop. I since put felt on the feet. What would you recommend I use to take the stains out? The stains are old (years). See stain picture below.

Then I would like to reseal the marble. I haven't done that in a long time, and even then I was just using a spray. What is a recommended product to do a job that will last longer than the Amazon sprays?

TIA!

Beautiful day for a paddle and a swim. The swim was pretty cold, though. Anybody else enjoyed the lake today? There were lots of people by the beach and a few other crafts out on the water.
