70's wood cabinets... part 2





We were on a roll with painting even though we discovered we had more to paint than planned. As the first section and its doors were completed, Aaron started attaching our new hardware, only to find out the hinges didn't match up completely with the old hardware holes. Our first major setback! Should we scrap the nickel finish for the shiny chrome finish? Or should Aaron redrill holes, fill in the old holes, sand and repaint? Hmm... tough call!

So we decided to re-drill holes and keep the nickel finish we both love. Progress has slowed to a "Hawaiian" pace. Plus, I'm sick now.

The sink area

The serving area

Welcome to the 21st century, kitchen! We'll spring for new countertops and sink next. And perhaps new lighting.

Cyclocross in Cascade

Mikey and Tina joined us to watch a cyclocross bike race down at Cascade Park. Aaron's thinking of trying it next year. Mikey and Tina too, if they get the right bikes. Looks hard to me! Not only do they have a bike race by time, they have to speed up and down hills and around trees, and jump obstacles! Crazy!!
