Hallway Then and Now

The past few weeks we have been ripping up the last remnants of the deep, deep green (that’s right, its not Forest Green, its deeper than that) carpeting that was in the upstairs hallway and the stairs. The first few photos below are what the stairs and hallway used to look like. The last few photos show what it looks like now. Underneath the carpet is nice hardwood floors that are in really good condition. We are going to have them sanded and poly’d sometime over the next few weeks which will really look pretty nice. Then I can put the baseboards on the hall walls and that will be done. Also need to paint the fine ornate “should be outside but its inside” handrailing.

We are in the process of painting the upstairs hallway so we thought it would be interesting to share a before and after of the upstairs hallway. In the newer photo of the hallway, the walls are just primed. We are hoping to get the walls painted over the next week or so.

Doors

Today, we had our new interior doors delivered to the house. We have a contractor coming to the house tomorrow to help dismantle the existing doors and hopefully install the new doors if we have the time. The goal is to get all the upstairs doors installed. We can do the first floor doors later in the weekend or during the week. And I still need to finish removing the wallpaper from Ian’s room!!

Light My Fire

I was a little taken aback when I read that it was Jim Morrison’s 60th Birthday today. Now I am hardly a fan of The Doors and I am hardly old enough to even remember any of their music (it was mildy popular by the time I was in grade school) but Morrison is still a personality that really trancends the ages. It would be interesting to see how he would have aged. Or maybe he is still alive on an island in the South Pacific. One will never know.
