 this will become a built in sideboard in the dining room section of the the kitchen. Chuck has already got the paneling up that will make the rear wall. |  The paneling is up, as are the upper cabinets and wine rack for the sideboard. Matt is working on setting the lower ones. (Never let it be said he doesn't really get into his work!) |
Since
there will be no addition to the north side of the house we decided to add this door that will open onto a deck and into the dog's yard.  Sara Berks is busy shoveling trash - an unending job whenever you want to do anything outdoors. | The
new north door  It still has issues with "level" but then most everything in the house has issueswith level. We love the light it brings into the kitchen! | from
the outside. |
 after 3 long days work the vent and upper cabinets by the stove are up. Venting the hood to the outside turned into quite a job, but Chuck and Davin stuck with it till they got it done! |  holes in the kitchen floor that had to be cut to remove the damaged plumbing that went to the old kitchen sink. |
 end of March - the dining room section of the kitchen is now sheet rocked. We have left part of the original chimney showing. | end
of March - back half of the kitchen, a big hole was opened in the floor to get to the broken pipes. Gail & Sara did not trust the plywood theguys put down so so we now have a "ramp".  The cabinets were delivered the Wednesday, after we arrived. They are now "stored" all over the house as we work in the kitchen. They are a soft ivory white but have a protective blue film on them that peals off. You should have seen Gail's face when we unboxed the first one!! |
 The front section of the old kitchen. The frost "ghost door" on the wall allowed access to a mobile home that was attached to the house years ago. This will be reopened into the planned addition. | The
old kitchen The old kitchen was split in two sections by a wall of cabinets and a doorway. So you looked through a window over the sink into the other section of the room. |  The back section of the kitchen looking out the backdoor. |
These
are the old wall of cabinets. You looked into the other section of the kitchen though the window over the sink.  |  the kitchen with the original cabinets torn out |  water heater will move to the bathroom |
