Getting Closer!

Speakers have been installed around the house.

We are at the stage where you could take a shower if you wanted. I would not advise it however as the water lines are filled with bleach right now to clean them out.

Judging by the size of this air conditioning unit we should be able to stay cool during the summer.

The shop finally has a foundation! Walls are supposed to go up soon.

Gratuitous photo of myself. The foreground does show the carpet color however.

The laundry room gets a sink, and counter tops.

Rock design above the stove is waiting for grout and vent hood to be put in.

Even though it is 88 degrees in the house, Deb is excited at the prospect of having heated bathroom floors! The thermostat in her hand controls the time on, time off and temperature.

The kitchen is starting to shape up.

Slate is complete and sealed (giving it the shine) on the deck, just waiting for railings.

Rock accents are up all over the house! I really like the look of this. Note: The gables of the roof (currently painted white and in the upper left of the photo) are soon to be painted 'Moroccan Brown" and the wood accents at the very top will be stained the same color as the front door (see photo below.)

Deb works on her tan.

Stair railing is in and stained. Front door has received a coat of stain and hardware.

The sitting room is really coming together. The top of the fireplace is waiting for a big wood mantle, and the black rectangular hole below it, a fire.

These photos were shot Monday July 3rd.
