Sunday was my 7th day in this challenge. We were at the cabin, a relaxing, sitting around reading or watching tv type of day. Lunch was stir-fry veggies and dinner was spaghetti with sauce from a jar. so not even our food was blog worthy. but we went down to the "big" city of Sonora (population 4,400) to pick out the towel racks and TP holder for the bathroom addition. Since my day 7 was pretty mundane, I thought now would be a good opportunity to show you how far along we are with the new bathroom addition.
The last time I did an update was in December. Well, that's only partially true. In January, I gave a fun shopping update showing some of the things we were hoping to purchase.
It's finally time to show a we-are-almost-there update.
This is the view from the hallway and kitchen. The door isn't on yet, soon, maybe this week. It doesn't look it, but the flooring is in, but that piece of plywood is there to protect it.
Stepping into the bathroom, you can see the full shower. We just picked out the shower doors on Monday and should be installed within 2 weeks.
Here's what it looks like with the solar tube. The previous photos were taken at night. We are so in love with the solar tube and can't believe how much light it lets in. This photo really doesn't do it justice, but even still, you can tell that it gives a good amount of light, it almost looks like the solar tube is a florescent light.
The vanity mirror and lights.
The vanity.
Sink and faucets.So we went with blue paint and dark wood. We're excited about the pattern of the swanstone and really happy with our choices and even happier that nothing clashes. You just never know when you're looking at color swatches that are so small.
Once this bathroom is done, our contractor will start working on the new deck. Permits permitting.

Hi Mad: I haven't been checking your blog on a regular basis cos I'be been swamped with variety show rehearsals and performances ( see my blog for details) but here I am! I think your 7 day blogathon is a great idea, maybe I'll try it, perhaps next week! The cabin bathroom looks great, and I love the details of your trip there. I really wish I was nearer so I could come with you.... I love seeing that California countryside.
Hum....what did you do to move the blog? With the new computer switch i have lost all of my auto email prompts or I would email....I'll check your profile and see if it is there.
