CONTINUOUS METAMORPHOSIS.
Finally the dining room gets attacked. The old flooring, possibly predating the British occupation, was ripped up and hauled off to the dump. Brent is a miracle worker when it comes to renovations and home improvements. It seemed like no time at all had passed and those horrid carpet tiles were a thing of the past.
The new floor is a traditional old Maine plank floor and is painted gray to go with the rest of the house which is gray and white (inside and out). Things are just getting better everyday!
