A trip upstairs

A lot of the upstairs was framed today.   Kaly (my wife), reluctantly climbed the ladder and enjoyed the second story views.  Even our five year old climbed up for a look at her new room.  We had our first visitors—our friends the Zane’s.  The kids loved playing in the dirt pile.

We’re discussing changing/adding a window to the loft area to center it and make it bigger.  The views are great so we might as well take advantage of it.

We visited some kitchen cabinet shops today.  There is a definite break point where the lower to mid range stores don’t carry any painted cabinets or cabinets with inset doors and the higher end (and very expensive) shops have almost exclusively inset doors.
