Electricity!

The cabinets in the new kitchen don't come with knobs and pulls---they look very nice, but won't stay that way for long with our fingerprints all over them. Aunt Linda found a great deal on stainless steel knobs for the cabinets, and I found a great deal on matching pulls for the drawers, so I swung by the property today to make sure I knew exactly how many I needed to buy. As I was entering the garage, I noticed this:
























We have electricity! It was great to enter the house and find it nice and cool inside with everything lit up and the air conditioners on.


















I am probably replacing the chandelier in the great room with a different fixture that I bought for my current house. I also need to buy four ceiling fans with light fixtures--so if you see a good sale on them, let me know.
























I also took time to check out the views from all of the windows. I photographed all of them, but I'll just share two here. This is the master bedroom on the first floor:




















The view from the master bedroom on the third floor, which is mine, is not as nice in my opinion, but I have a very nice view of the trees from my office window:

























Anyway, I got the proper count--24 knobs and eight pulls--and bought them today.



















Here's what they look like against the cabinets:
