Cabinets!

Today was full of ups and downs and I was quickly reminded of the stress involved in a remodeling project. The cabinet guys (2 of them) arrived a little after 10:00 AM as they had a 98 mile drive with lots of traffic. They were fast though and although they left around 3:30 PM, they were able to get most of it finished. They would have completed the job if it hadn't been for a couple of unforeseen problems. First one of the base cabinets was too long and in addition to trimming the sides down they had to cut into the beautiful trim Aaron created around the opening in the wall leading to the dining area. Second, in trimming adjusting the base cabinet it created problems for the countertop. I guess what people say is true about remodeling- it always costs more than anticipated and there are always problems!

Here's some photos but note that our camera lens must have some residual bread ingredients on it as some of the photos have strange spots on them.
