I'll try again!  This, hopefully, is the old kitchen.

Still not working, very frustrating.  Not as bad as a kitchen renovation, but frustrating nonetheless.

Jim, when attaching photos.... when you get the first two messages, ignore each, and scroll down and just click 'post' again...

Third time will usually be the one that works!

No Idea why.... it's been like this since the 'New Forum' was put in place. (at least on 'my' Computer...)

"Third Time Lucky" is what I call it....  :wink: :wink:

(or.. when at first you don't succeed .... try, try again.... )

Sorry, the photos need to be rotated and, given my technologically Amish nature, I can't fix them.

Only work remaining is the soffit over the cabinets, stripping the stain from a section of the floor and painting the room.

Oh, and, BTW, I have double ovens and double pantries in the adjoining room.  Cooking ready for the holidays!

Beautiful, Beautiful!!  I LOVE your new gas range.

My kitchen is, shall we say, primitive... even by comparison to your old kitchen!

I have expensive taste, so kitchen renovations with me at the helm can get pricey!

The tricks to cost management included me being my own GC/CM, buying floor models of appliances, price shopping on line and being patient with the subcontractors I used.
