the doors II- lanai she cried...

The sliding glass door dudes returned this morning with a chippy 7:AM phone call to inform me they'd arrive in 20 minutes. I hate early morning. The good news is that everything went smooth and it's in. See that blue thing through the window? That's the pool. Now all I have to do is break the down the remains of the previously-there bay window (that's the chunk you see directly behind the window). One of my next big projects is gonna be some slick shelving and I'll repurpose a fair amount of the plywood, of which there's a lot. It's WAY brighter in there now- the bay window had far less window and they were super tinted. I need to do window treatments very soon. Also need to figure out moldings, trim, something for the floor, etc. The perimeter looks worse than it actually is; it's just unpainted drywall that was previously covered with the bay window trim pieces.

The only thing I don't love about the doors are the handles; a bit frumpy for my tastes, but they could potentially be far worse. I would've preferred a more minimal round tubular kind of thing. After a little prelim research, it doesn't appear that there are any other options, but I'll look into it more.

In unrelated news, counter top measure guy #2 was here today (with lasers!) and they'll be installing the counters in about a week.
