We rigged up a spot light for the chop saw on the back patio so we could continue to cut boards well after sundown. Thanks parents for the portable work lights :) Another Christmas present put to good use!
Dan and I spent Friday night getting things organized and cleaned up. We opened our remaining boxes of hardwood to get all the nice long pieces out to use in the floor.
Then we laid a few more rows so we could move the refrigerator and the dishwasher back in their spots and get them out of the way for the rest of flooring.
We also left a note and picture for the future owners to find whenever they make the poor decision to tear up the flooring. Then we stuck it under the under-layment and laid a few more rows.
The guys worked until about dinner time, and then we let Steve go home and spend Valentines evening with Karen. Dan and I laid a few more rows before calling it a night, ordering some sushi and curling up in front of the fire.
We have not been able to stop staring at it. We took Steve and Karen out to dinner as a small way of thanking them for all their help. I know we have said this before but we honestly, could not have done this without them.
The light at the end of the tunnel is near. We keep joking that we don't know what we are going to do with all our free time once this is done. I'm sure we'll come up with other projects...
