Sticks Up!

In the parlance of real estate construction and development, we went "sticks up" this week! The framing for walls in the new sections appeared. The structure and rooms we've dreamed of for two years have begun to take form!

Laura covered this week's meeting while Bernie was back east, visiting friends. That's when we learned of another hitch related to the kitchen cabinets. The window over the sink had to move a few inches to comply with width of a shear wall to the corner. With the cabinets as selected, that would leave the window about 4 inches off center of the sink. Unh -uh. We'll be looking for alternatives, as leaving the misalignment would go far beyond quaint, and into the realm of random.

Next week our new appliances will be delivered, and go straight into storage. And the roof trusses should be delivered as well.
