A couple of weekends ago, Lucy had given Pop the gift of sickness.  When Pop came over Saturday, he did not look good.  YaYa kept the work day to a short one, trying to keep Pop healthy (or at least not getting worse).  It didn’t help.  Sunday, she took him to the Urgent Care and he was diagnosed with Bronchitis.  Pop was in bed for a couple of days, but recovered enough to get to Carp on Friday to be here for the delivery of the kitchen cabinets and the final day of Quoc working on the furnace.   Or, I should say the scheduled delivery of the kitchen cabinets and the scheduled working of Quoc.
When I got home from work, no one was working, and Pop had been working alone all day.  At 12:30p He had gotten a call from the cabinet people that they were leaving LA.  At 5:30p they still had not arrived.  We got a later call saying that their U-Haul truck had broken down and they would be on site on Saturday morning.  They arrived at 7:15a and began to work.  All day long 4 people toiled to get the cabinets installed.  A lot of the finish work was done here, on site.  Sanding, painting, etc. was done in the front yard.  They worked until 7:30p.  Here are some pictures of what was done by Saturday night.

On Sunday, they returned to finish at 8:30a.  I was in and out during the day, and returned at 8:30p to see that they were still working.  They had put up most of the crown moulding and adjusted most of the drawer rails.  What is not visible in the pictures is that every lower cabinet has pullout drawers instead of shelves, even the pantry.  Also, we had ‘toe kick’ drawers installed in each lower cabinet.  These drawers make great places to store things that you don’t access very often.  We use the ‘toe kick’ drawers that Pop built upstairs to hold batteries, screwdrivers, etc.  I’ll try to get some pictures of the pullouts and the toe kick drawers posted.

Although the work continued late into Sunday night, some work just didn’t get completed.  Also, we wanted to see the cabinets in the daylight as a ‘final inspection’.  They will be back next Saturday for a few short hours (hopefully) to finish up.
Here are pictures of what we have now.  The first picture shows the island.  We have decided to add a table to the island to make an “L” shape.  Obviously, the table top part is not installed yet.
