WHOO-HOO - The beginning of walls

The sheetrock material was not delivered today until 10AM. Then, the crew had to load it in. So, they really only had about half a day today. The Dining Room is time-intensive. There is patching into existing walls, a dropped ceiling which hides the plumbing pipes from upstairs bath, working around a door, an arch and an odd bit of cabinetry that will eventually be removed. Still, it sure beats looking at wall studs and electrical runs.

Looking into dining room, straight on and looking out from my seat into Kitchen.

The completely new wall (where the hallway to back porch used to be). The plan is to build in a new, shallow dish hutch on this wall, and eliminate this standalone piece. We have asked the cabinet guy to get us a price for something like that.

The dropped ceiling, hopefully once finished it will look like we planned it that way (grin).

View from the nook into the still old Kitchen. The stove is sitting in front of the access arch that will be going away. Possibly as early as tomorrow.
