Kitchen Craziness--Day 27

the regular  'crew' was back bright and early this Monday morning..they installed lots of trim pieces .. more still on order... the Granite-guys got here just after noon today... did the install with the new sink ...and  the crew installed the new faucet --not hooked up yet as it has to seat first for 24 hours under the Granite Countertop ..they also installed the Stovetop in the island....it's getting there...more trim work then tile work for the back-splash...that's about 2 more weeks away as supplies are on order.. at least we can start putting back what was taken out of the old cabinets..

Kitchen Craziness--Day 23

after 2 weeks of patiently waiting on the Granite Countertops and a delivery this past Tuesday of  cabinet trim materials the crew was at it again.. repositioned the fridge.. installed the in-cabinet oven and microwave.. installed the base pre-trim.. they'll hopefully be back on Monday when the Granite Countertops are supposed to arrive and be installed.. right on schedule so no complaints except the house is still in 'TFC'--Total Friggin' CHAOS... a few pics from late this afternoon

Sunrise.. and a few 'friends' at the Lake

a 'kewl' morning at 68*--unusual for this area in the middle of summer.. the sun was shining at the beach.. a stop at the lake on the drive home for a few snaps.. and some 'fish for breakfast'

a 'before sunrise' sky
popping up
as low as I can go
an 'after sunrise' sky
Sammy hitching a ride as usual
Momma & Papa left him all alone
are you looking at me
snoozing near the green
living dangerously
okay.. wait for me
it's fish for breakfast
