the Vertigo Update

My closing has now been delayed by two weeks, to July 25. It looks like things are moving along - dry wall was put up last week, texturing and taping and primer this week. I'm hoping that by next week, I'll see some paint up on the walls, cabinets delivered, appliances appearing, etc.

New pictures:

The kitchen. Imagine cabinets, counter tops and appliances.

The fireplace. The wall above the fireplace has been future proofed for the flat screen TV, with power and cabling for cable, HDMI and the videogame systems run through the walls. Pete and I got to punch a big hole in the wall for the cabling, which was kind of cool. In about 60 years when several owners from now punch through the walls, they are going to wonder who was stupid enough to stuff 25 feet of cable in the walls. Let them wonder, I say, let them wonder. I am also now the proud owner of an electric stud finder.

Finally, the murphy bed enclosure, which is where all of you who come to visit or pass out after the excesses of Cap Hill will be sleeping. Note the big windows from the living and lanai in the background. If light bothers you, you've been warned: bring a sleeping mask.
