June 20, 2008—Well problem resolved (somewhat)
Here is another shot of the fireplace along the trims. Even with them in the way, you can see that it will be framed through the dining room arch. I want to make sure, that we get the chimney right.
Here are Kai and Joe Gaitan the plaster contractor figuring out the dimensions that the chimney should have. They will make up another foam core and we will take a look at that.
I finally was able to fool my camera enough to get some detail on the dining room cabinets. The end cupboards will hold glassware and vases. I hope we have enough space for all our stuff because our current hutch is very crowded.
The clerestory windows in the kitchen/family room have been trimmed out. They need to be caulked and painted again, but this is really the final look for them
The trim is only finished on the clerestories, there still is head trim, picture rail, and a plate shelf on the right side of the room to be installed.
The mortar bed for the tile has been laid on top of the master bath vanity. I am now obsessing about whether our high, arched faucets will fit under the medicine cabinets. What will I do with my life when I no longer have all these details to worry about?
