Day 247 - Worth the Wait

I've been promising cabinet pictures for at least two weeks, maybe more. Well, the cabinets have arrived and they have been worth the wait.......but you have to wait a little longer.

We had an "incident" at the house requiring a visit from one of Hays County's fine law enforcement officials.  The responding officer was quick to arrive, efficient and thorough in the investigation, courteous, and professional in every way.

Very quick response for non-emergency call

A criminal or cretin or general scumbag kicked in the unlocked front door - very stupid on so many levels and so unnecessary!!!!  The damage is being repaired quickly and the alarm/surveillance system activated.  So if the criminal tries again, the creep will get a big surprise.

Officer inspecting door frame

The damaged door was discovered by the cabinet installation crew who has been hard at work for days.  They set up "shop" on the back porch and garage to cut pieces for the finished cabinets.

I'll take you on a tour of the house with cabinet work still in progress.   We'll start in the mudroom and work our way around the house.  I apologize for the poor lighting in some of the pictures.

And you might have noticed some of the light fixtures and fans in the cabinet shots.  The guys aren't done with the fixtures yet, but here are some interim shots.

We are thrilled with the progress and are looking forward to the finish of the cabinets, trim work, and the start of the granite process this week.
