Alexandria Kitchen: Week 3 Update

Since I broke my Moto RAZR last week, I've needed a few days to get a handle on how picture taking is going to work with the new iPhone.  So here's a first go at a blog post with photos from the iPhone...the camera is much better here and the photos are usually hi resolution.  I've saved them down to ten percent of the original density - thus there is some graininess, but hopefully, they will serve.  I'll keep working on it and get the hang of it.

This week, the major accomplishment has been to finish the framing of the wall between the kitchen and dining room, and getting the wall board up.  Since I took these photos on Monday morning, boxes for the light switches have been cut out and other progress has been made...but I will save that for next week.

Here are the "four points" in the kitchen as of Monday morning.  Starting from the wall where the base and wall cabinets were, then the window where the kitchen sink was, the new wall that used to be a door, and then the doorway to the basement.






This one is the dining room side of the new wall, where we moved the doorway to the side.

Here are the two sun room views.  Next week you'll be able to see some big changes in here.




Finally, here is the view into the pantry.  There will be new cabinets and counters in here, so it can be used as additional workspace.  All of that is coming, soon enough.
