Ok all, we’re getting close. If you have the luxury of peering in our windows you will have noticed a lot of working going on lately. Finally. Anyhow, to give you something solid to go on. The dry wall should be wrapping up today with our floor prep beginning next week. Things are starting to take shape quite fast now. I do have one bit of bad news however, we are being made to cap off our ceiling with drywall. Meaning that the beautiful exposed floor joists that you now see are going to be covered up. But to avoid any further delays we are pushing forward with it. Never fear, we still have our beautiful brick wall as well as two sweet columns that Naomi has been known to swing from. Also, to help build the anticipation I will share with you some of the elements we are going to be throwing into the mix. We are very excited about our 23′ long concrete bar that will include ample seating on two ends. Another item of note, the glorious 6′ x 5′ hole that I’m sure many of you have heard about. The hole will be used as a viewing into the basement with a glorious view of our Diedrich IR-12. See the MadCap flickr for pics. I’ll throw a couple up today of the roaster being lowered through the hole into the basement. We also have a stellar piece of art work being created by local photographer Eric and the details for that will be a surprise. The last physical element I will share with you is all our custom made furniture. Our studly designer Tom is not only creating the enormous concrete bar with his bare hands but is creating all our tables as well. So, hopefully this little tidbit will have made it all worth the wait.
I might as well tell you also that we are very excited to be working with a lot of local companies to provide us with wonderful goodies. Goodies include yummy milk from a local dairy, local baked goods, and gourmet sandwiches from a local restaurant.
Ok, that should give everyone something to brew with for a while. cheers
