More framing work today.
The guys ran a second 2x4 along the top of the walls, put up the final third of the back wall and the entire right wall, and built the pockets for the beam that will run the length of the garage.
The plumbers were around today too. They started replacing and repairing the plumbing under the house. Bud kept one piece of pipe that is so corroded we almost can't see light at the other end when we look through it. (Probably should take a picture of that, huh?)
I met with the main plumber, Robbie, to firm up our plans for kitchen and bath fixtures, toilets and the whirlpool tub.
He'll be taking care of all of those things for us now, which is a relief. We probably still will buy the kitchen sink ourselves because he can't get a better deal on the exact one I chose, and I really like its shape. Also, we'll still take care of the bathroom sinks because they're built into the vanities I selected.
Gary and Jimmy are going to give us directions to an Amish cabinetmaker. They say the cabinets from there are beautiful and very well may be less expensive than the estimate we got yesterday from the guy we visited last week. That would be great -- because that bid was sort of scary. LOL.
