Donna was in Charleston on business in mid December and while David suffered in cold, wet Washington Donna contended with 80 degree weather and a round of golf with colleagues. However, once our builder heard that she was in the neighbourhood he took advantage of the opportunity to have her run errands and confirm a few more items related to the house before she left town.The place is coming along and the work has moved indoors. The cabinets in the master bath are installed and apparently look very nice and the work on the outdoor fireplace has begun as you can see in the picture above. One big OOOPS is that the contractor has installed the wrong flooring which must be removed and replaced. Given the number of decisions we have made, I guess it is not surprising that there is at least one mistake. Anyway, we are assured that it will not slow us down. Other meetings included the pool contractor to select coping and tiles, the closet lady, and the decorator for preliminary color choices.
This picture of the house was actually taken in November before the foundation was painted, but at least it shows an unobstructed view of the house without dumpsters etc. More news in early January - stay tuned.
