August, 2007

On 15 August the second of three coats of finish was applied to the oak floor. There will be another sanding before the final finish. This picture is taken from the Stairway, in almost exactly the opposite direction as the previous picture. The electricians got in to do a little work between finish coats; one of the lights for the Great Room can be seen to the right of the bragger of the arched beam. (The lights are quite small, by design.) Baseboard trim is yet to be applied, and the half wall separating the Promenade from the Dining Room needs to be painted and trimmed. The windows are dirty, making haze from forest fires look worse than it actually is; still, we are suffering from the poor air quality and try not to exert ourselves too much.
