BLOG CONTEST!!!!

Here's the deal: be the person who guesses closest to the completion date of the basement and you win a $25 gift certificate to the retailer of your choice. Entries will be accepted via blog comments, email, or personal contact. First come first served. I will update this post with everyone's entries as well as our progress. Good luck!

Here's what's left to do:
Utility room cabinets (already ordered, to be installed by Nampa Floors)
Utility Room base boards - install and paint
New washer and dryer installed - requires minor plumbing changes since we moved them to the other side of the room.
Refinish utility room floor. Sand and stain.
Install 2 doors (including trim) in the basement.
Install carpet in basement (Nampa Floors)
Electrical finish work - outlets, switches, covers, etc.
Finish installing furnace (Luis - this one is a wild card!!)
Finish landscaping around egress windows - move about 1 yard of gravel.

Other commitments/distractions:
Barry is out of town June 5-11, 21-24, and July 18-27. Karen has a broken toe, and Sprout has surgery July 12. Also, Barry is defending his thesis this fall and working in the field most of September and October.

Here are the entries to-date:

Matt - Sept. 1
Nana (Barry's Mom) - Oct. 1
Amber - Nov. 1

  1. HMMMM, this is a tough one. The furnace is key as I think you'll want that done before mid fall. September 1 - Eleanor's birthday.
