Finishing Touches

Finishing touches are underway. We've started moving in, but are having to wait on some things because of finishing the floor, for example. Bathroom mirrors and shower stall doors will be installed next week. Some new furniture is being delivered this coming week, too, as well as the refrigerator and range. The painting is done, the carpet is installed. It's definitely feeling like a house that's ready for occupants. We do have our certificate of occupancy already--Yay!
Congrats to our builder, Matt Montgomery!

Looking out through the kitchen window--nice to see the flowers peaking up.

Hardware time


Hardware has been installed on doors. And notice how shiny the floor is--it's been sealed. It'll get more coats, but just this step makes a tremendous difference.

Front door with dentil shelf installed, new hardware, house numbers and doorbell button.

The Polkameister with his Weltmeister!

Well, here it is... Paul with his flashy new squeeze box. Aren't they a pair?! It's a 4-year-old Weltmeister with a terrific folk sound and look, besides being 14 pounds lighter than his old accordion. Now Paul can be a happier wanderer on stage.

Thanks to all who pitched in on this great gift for Paul's 50th.
