Day Six: Almost there...

Well we have been at it 6 days. (1) tare down, (2) build cabinets, (3) run wires, (4) run more wires, (5) install cabinets, (6) counter tops.

The house is a disaster and we are all getting excited for the home stretch.
We had a very long and productive day, and only one mishap. Unfortunately, the mishap has lead to a few more days of work. You can't see it from the photos (not something we want to go down in history) but the longest piece of granite (the peninsula, not the island, piece broke in to four large jagged pieces). Which means that we needed to square them all off and put it back together (proving harder than it sounds).

But, on the positive side, it looks amazing. We still need to cut the holes in for the sink and cooktop, but this will give you an idea of what it will look like. To see the real details and colors remember to click on the picture.

Tomorrow ISSB and I both go back to work, Dad will have the run of the place and any four/six hand jobs will have to wait until the evening. Then ISSB has Friday off to help finalize anything and Dad will head back home to Oregon.
