No kitchen progress at this time.. Waiting on granite to be installed which will be another 2 weeks or so. We chose a granite called "steel grey" .. its a black granite with some silver specks. We were going to do brown granite but thought the black was a better contrast for the orange paint and dark floors.. Heres a pic of steel grey. I also got a call from Steve at Huntwood and he is coming over on Saturday to meet with Brian to look at the defects in the cabinets and either fix them or order replacements so thats good.. Don has to still finish up the chimney but the weather here has been so bad that he can't get up there. Hopefully it'll settle down next week. Tonight we have dinner plans at our neighbors - very nice of them but we're having lamb and I"m not a fan of lamb:-( but it should be nice. and looking forward to this weekend - visiting Elaine in Cali.. she has lots of plans for us already.. Tainan for Taiwanese food on Friday then a comedy show.. Saturday, we pick up Eva, then lunch, shop and head to downtown to check into our hotel.. followed by sushi dinner and dancing at Studio 181.. and Sunday we have superbowl at a friend of hers and back to sEattle.. Phew, Monday will be tough.
