Progress!

Our contractor, Adam, has been working on the kitchen a little over 2 weeks now and I must say we are quite happy with the progress he's made thus far. Removing the *classy* brown and orange cabinets took a bit longer than expected as the original homeowner (who we think installed everything) had an apparent bolt and nail obsession. He also seemed to have a wood obsession as nearly every room in our house has *custom* built-ins. I imagine our house looked a little something like this back in the 1970s....



Below are three recent photos of the kitchen. After ripping nearly everything out, we're left with MORE WOOD! Why does this keep happening?







And finally an image of what the final layout should look like.
