Kitchen Remodeling Project

Well, we are back from vacation in San Juans. So, with too much time/money on our hands, we decide to remodel the kitchen. (gulp!). Sharon has the "eye" and spends huge amounts of time picking style, color, layout, details, countertops etc. We decide on Home Depot. ... Eric trys to help (or stay out of the way).




So, first the "rip-out":

"Please don't hurt the floor!"

All we can save is the dishwasher & microwave.

forced to keep the soffits, "pipes inside"







Then a team of people (Home Depot) install the cabinets.

We also buy a stove:
"dual fuel"
... gas cooktop and electric convection oven

And a refrigerator (with icemaker)



by Nov. 15, we have countertops (Correan). Simultaneous Countertop guys, plumber, and (who knew?) housepainter to powerwash the outside of the house (in a light rain). Guess what? the fawcett does not quite fit; need an adaptor. (Call company (Moen) and they FedEx one ($15 extra). It arrives at 9:00 the next morning. Good job Moen!)

So we are almost done. (Yea right).

All we need now is walls painted, tile backsplash, and light fixtures. (Light fixtures will require more style decisions.--- ug!)
