Gary, Jimmy and Tom installed the rear ceiling joists in the garage today. They also placed chipboard down the middle of the ceiling; it's the beginning of the floor in the upstairs storage area.
Meanwhile, Bud and I checked out a more expensive use of wood during our cabinet-finding expedition.
First, we visited a place that will use computer-assisted drawing to show us how our finished kitchen will look. I'm excited about this because I've been worried that the upper cabinets will look strange since they'll be so tall. (No soffits and 9-foot ceilings, remember?)
We met with the owner, who showed us a few quick ideas and gave us a tour of the facility. He'll turn the project over to the company's designer, who'll e-mail us a first draft. I can't wait!
Our second stop was a dealer who sells the same line of custom cabinets we liked many, many weeks ago at our very first stop.
It turns out the dealers of this line have protected territories. And we live in the territory of the first dealer. Of course.
So I explained our experience with the other place (whose rep still hasn't called, BTW). Our new rep said she'd talk with the regional manager to make sure her store will be permitted to handle our project.
We gave her all our specifics, and we have our fingers crossed.
