Cabinets Arrive

What a day! Cabinets were delivered, exterior rock work is just about complete, and interior doors are in Harrison. I will install the cabinets tomorrow and call for the granite tops, which should be installed in about 3 weeks. I think I have convinced Scott to come back and set all the remaining interior doors, and that's about all I need from him. The plan is to move in and finish up while we live there, something that is not the best, but at least I get to keep right on working every day to finish. There's really not much left on the outside either, mainly the front entry porch and part of the french drain. My main problem now is finding some wide cherry to complete the paneling in the awesome room, I have material for everything else needed to complete the house. The cabinets are great looking cherry with shaker style, and I will spend all  day tomorrow installing them. After that, I will spend the rest of my time completing all of the interior trim work. 4 weeks left till our self imposed deadline to move in. I guess we will let everyone know when to come over and help us move, I know how much everyone loves to move.  It's supposed to rain this weekend, but since it's only a 60% chance, that basically means no chance, so I will get  a lot done.

Return To Cool

Weather has been amazing lately, after a scorcher of a summer, we have had a run of days in the 70s and 80s, and nights in the low 60s high 50s. Perfect weather for hanging out on the deck, having a fire, and soaking in the hot tub late at night. We have had some rain, but still need a lot more to get the river in shape. Just in the past few days I have been lucky enough to see 5 bucks in velvet just hanging out at Mr. Warren's cabin, one of them an 8 pt. and a couple of 6 its. And then, I came upon 12 wild turkeys crossing the road, wow, the turkey seem to be coming back strong. I'm pushing hard on everything I can to meet our move in date, and it's coming down to the wire. Kitchen cabinets and interior doors arrive this week, and I picked up more cherry today for trim and paneling. 4 weeks of hard work baby and I can drive this thing. Just in time for fall, if there is one. I'm gone, syotrs RJ
