Flooring fans

From the second floor, the bamboo flooring is in place but not yet nailed down; it is so hard that it broke the nail gun. The replacement nailer comes on Tuesday.

Fans in the great room.

Lights on the first floor walkway.

Tile in the basement

Here's today's video:

Trim and Bathrooms

The tile floor in "Mom's" bathroom is now done.
The master bathroom tile looks great.
This is the wall on the between the upper part of the kitchen and the great room - it used to just insulation but it now looks like logs!

Here is today's video:

Doors, Floors and Tiles

The interior doors are being put in place and stained - good for playing "Hide and Seek!"

This is a tile that I found in Eugene, OR and had installed in the upstairs bathroom.
The floors on the second level are being sanded and then will be finished with a clear coat.

Here's today's video tour!

Paint & Garage Doors

Garage doors are in. Will someone please roll the trash bin to the street?

The bonus room above the garage is a light blue - very pretty.
Basement room is a beige-coral color that we are hoping will go nicely with the terra cotta tiles for the floor.
One of the upstairs bedrooms is a light yellow called "morning sun" which is ironic since the room faces west!

Drywall & Heat

Dry wall installation sure makes the inside take shape.

We have heat inside that the drywall finishers need in order to put the mud on the walls.
On the outside the stone finish is around to the front.

Here is the latest video:

Well & Patio

This week we figured out how we are doing the cabinets and the placement in the kitchen. Once the order is placed we should have the cabinets by the end of December.

The major changes this week were the well being dug and this concrete patio outside of the basement.
Since the videos do not always work on the blog, I've gone back to uploading them to you tube and providing the link:

Fall Changes

The deck is now in place all the way around the back.
This is the HVAC unit in the basement. There is also one in the upstairs and one in the bonus room to heat and cool the bonus room and the breezeway.
Look at all those wires! Lots of electrical work has been done and Jacob installed the camera mounts so that we will be able to keep track of the place remotely.
We now have doors!

Here is the video from October when Grandma DeNearing and Aunt Jeanette were visiting:

This is the video from Nov 6 when we got back from our travels ; Jim & Jacob to South Dakota to hunt with Luci and Linda to Eugene to play Halloween with Lisa, Holly & Luke.
