Cabinets are in!

I am so excited! It's finally beginning to take shape.

Mike and Keith picked up the cabinets from our garage this morning and spent most of the afternoon installing them. I was worried that the rain would impact the schedule but it did not. Here are the pictures I promised.

This is what you'll see when you first walk in. The counter is basically a large T shape. At the top of the T, we'll install a cooktop and 30" oven. We'll use the cabinets to store all of our supplies for cooking classes and wine tastings. Check out the box hanging from the ceiling. The hood will be attached to it. You can also see the new and old electrical panels on the far wall (as well as some of the mess).

This is the back wall. The cabinet next to the door will hold a 27" oven and a microwave. The sink will be next to that cabinet, followed by the dishwasher and the fridge.

This is the front view. Most of the cooking will happen behind the top of the T and most of the eating and wathcing will happen along the sides and bottom of the T.

Countertop guy is scheduled to come in to measure between 9 am and 1 pm tomorrow. I should get a better feel for the timeline once I hear back from them.

Stay tuned for more details ... there's more dry walling in our future and the installation of a water heater and a garbage disposal ahead of us!
