RR Final Day

We wrapped it up today.  Still lots to do, but I believe they can move in and finish the rest when they get other help or Patrick recovers.

Here are some more exterior pictures of the house:






Remember the spice cabinets we were planning on installing yesterday?



Well, here is how it looks after working on it for half the day:


This picture was actually taken at the end of the day, and if I look a little tired.........I was. 

Tracey looks happy with it.  They haven't decided whether to include the drawers or just some of them, but I installed them all just in case. 



We did a lot of other little detail clean up, like door stops, hanging mirrors, painting and installing the stair rail, and a major clean-up and tool gathering and packing. 

Here is Carolyn putting another coat on the stair rail:


She spent a major part of the day measuring and marking for the installation of mirrors in the three bathrooms, and getting it exactly right.  Then together we mounted them and they were perfect.  Here is a pretty proud Carolyn with one of the finished products:




Final Mop-UP


Tomorrow we head home.  Looks like we haven't been missing any good weather while we were gone as I think it has rained every day at home and promises to continue on after we get back. 

Carolyn has planned meals for the week at Patrick and Tracey's house and with Tracey's help we have had great dinners every day after work.  Today we celebrated the completion of our stay with a couple of bottles of wine.  We have really enjoyed our stay and feel we have got to know and like the family more than ever.
