Finished Floors

After three weeks of labor, the floors in the rear of the house are finally finished. Progress was much slower because the floor guy was also sanding and white-washing the beams, which he could not do at the same time as the floors. Also, the first try at getting the right color on the floors didn't work out, and he ended up having to sand it all out and start from scratch. Thankfully, the results look pretty nice, and are a fairly close match to the original wood in the front half of the house.

This week there should be plenty of activity; in the front of the house, the floor guy will be patching up and sanding our stairs and banister. Meanwhile, the rear of the house will get a new treatment for the window and door, along with the appliances and some carpentry.
