New tile

Well, the old tile, posted weeks ago, is out because it looked too peachy-pinky in the light. Here's what's in. Same stuff -- travertine -- but larger (18") tiles and different color. You can't really tell in this photo, but there's more gray in it to pick up the color in the countertop.

Tomorrow: sanding.

Walls!

Drywall installation was today. Next on the agenda, mudding and taping.

Cement! (and a blizzard)

So the cement truck happened to be scheduled for the morning that the cities were expecting a winter storm. To give you an idea of how bad the weather was -- the U even closed at 2:30 pm.
