Episode IX is focused on the installation of our beautiful second hand oak floor. It’s remarkable to see how much closer this whole project appears to be finished with just the addition of flooring. I think now my back and knees are both ready for a little break. I was also hoping this whole process would end in a nice round number, but it doesn’t look like we’re going to get away with single digits only.

Episode VIII looks at the final decorations of the project. Like copper wall hangings, colors, a ceiling, and the acquisition of some old oak flooring (which actually moved from Oakland to Laguna Beach a couple of years ago, and now, after being used down there, makes it’s way back to Oakland.) Episode VIII also features a song familiar to anyone who frequented DisneyLand and stayed past dusk in the 1980s.
