Nearing the finish line

We're back from a weeks vacation in San Francisco! The weather was a lot better than the Florida weather of mid-90's. I wore pants and sweaters the entire week in San Francisco. The contractor resumed work on our kitchen this past Thursday and Friday. It's definitely looking more like a kitchen. Thursday the base cabinets were installed. Friday the above stove microwave was installed and the dishwasher is partially installed. The counter top was cut for the sink and the new faucet was intalled. A lot of the doors are now in place. IKEA has the coolest hinges (manufactured by Blum). It is the easiest thing in the world to pop the doors off for construction purposes. And the door and drawer dampers are awesome. It's practically impossible to slam things!
