Kaleb, Matt, Brendin, Jason, and Brett were here again painting away.  Tim stopped by mid-morning to check their progress.  They got all of the trim and ceilings done (with the exception of the storage room baseboards… that haven’t been installed yet), plus they painted the walls in the guest bath, master bedroom, and master bath.  The master bedroom color is quite vibrant (and that is probably a serious understatement).  Now that we see the wall paint going on, Chree and I have decided that we really don’t like the green overtones in the “Anderson white” trim paint.  More to follow…  Sonny finished putting on the stair nosings and installed the casings around the two garage windows.  He and Brandon also installed the Ifelele cap on the main level half wall railing… which looks absolutely gorgeous.  They planed the rest of my rough cut maple so that Chree and I could select which boards will be used for thresholds.  Steve and I ran PEX tubing through the conduit down to the sauna, then he started to install the water control valves for the guest bath shower.  The Granite Group brought all of the rest of our plumbing fixtures, which now take up every available out-of-the-way nook in the garage and elsewhere throughout the house.  Chree and I finished our part of the door varnishing saga, i.e., there now are two coats of polyurethane on all six sides of all 23 interior doors.
