STAIRS, FURNITURE, + OTHER NEWS

THE WATER WELL GETS DRILLED:


Finally! . . . 8 MONTH wait for the well driller guys. Unbelievable. Turns out the new well is pumping 15 gallons per minute (whatever THAT means) . . . Sounds good, anyway. Septic is next.

SPIRAL STAIRS FINALLY INSTALLED:

Interior of the cabin is coming along . . .

The spiral stairs will have pine treads to match the walls.

We chose laminate flooring in a terra cotta (fake tile) pattern. It goes in next week. The kitchen counters to match go in this week.

ROUGH KENNEL SKETCH + OFFICE PLANS

CLICK TO ENLARGE...

WE HAVE 16 BREEDING STOCK DOGGIES AND 4 HOUSE DOGS. 40 feet of privacy fencing in a U-shape around the kennel building will cut down the barking.

WE JUST BOUGHT A NEW DOMAIN:

For the boarding side of the business!

GUEST CABIN GETS A BATHROOM + WINDOWS + CABINETS!

Two young studs put studs in the loft. (Wonder if they have a stud fee like our male dogs?)



Kitchen cabinets being hand-made. Counter tops are Corian "burnt amber" . . .



Armstrong windows took forever, and were supposed to have WHITE trim, but what the heck . . .



OMG, the tub was on backorder for 8 weeks. Then it got lost in Memphis. So, we walked into Home Depot and picked up a cheap generic one. Finally, some walls and cabinets going in! Happy to see the loft getting done and the electric sure helps!



Cabin comes with coat racks (how handy!).



Our "Texas star" door finally arrived . . . Whoohoo!



Front porch will have ceiling fans . . .



The head contractor, Paul, has problems with the design of the eaves . . .



Paul says we need 100 tubes of grout . . . EEK! Sounds sticky! [grin]

DOGGIE DOORS IN THE KENNEL~

[Squeak!] The lovely white gutters are up and the industrial dog doors are in. Considering the size of the kennel -- 1500 Sq. Feet -- we're amazed how bright it is in there . . . Those plastic skylights are AMAZING and we HIGHLY recommend them!
