Many things are happening in Kroakyland... The painting is almost complete, although we decided that the darker green in the green rooms wasn't dark enough so we're doing a few walls again. We decided to use a wave pattern to breakup the design of the corridors so yesterday I was up early and drew a wave design in Illustrator and traced and cut the shape onto a six foot long election sign. It was fairly easy to transfer the wave design onto the walls using a pencil. I was feeling kinda sick by the time I finished and ended up having to spend the rest of the day in bed with a fever and stomach bug. Then Mary got it too so we lost a little time -- even so we seemed to get a lot done.
This afternoon, once I had recovered, I went over to the building and saw the wave was done -- I think it looks really good.
We also started the final electrical work with the electrician who came up with some good ideas to attach the LED lights to the roof.
The floor tiles were being laid when I arrived. I am really happy the way they are turning out. We spent days and days discussing so many flooring options so it's good to see that the one we chose actually looks good. Regular readers will know that the walls and the seats were originally coordinated to the floor tiles and I am happy to report that so far it all seems to be coordinated.
The TVs and most of the speaker mounts arrived. We had to order from multiple locations to get the number we wanted quickly.
Our front counter arrived. on a big truck from New Jersey. We haven't unpacked it yet, but it's 700 pounds of PURE AWESOMENESS! More photos in a few days...
And the first of our kitchen equipment was installed -- the PEPSI machine so I can drink my own favorite drink -- Diet Pepsi topped with Dr. Pepper.
Back home and I made a late order for our effect lights. Wehad tested several types of effect light a few months ago. We decided on sound-activated mirror-ball like effect for each room.
