Before, During and After








Years of planning, and the better part of two weeks of mess and work, and I have what I wanted.  The cheap-ugly fiberglass tub-shower is gone, replaced by a walk in shower, with custom tile work, and glass doors.  The nice, but not terribly functional cabinets have been replaced with custom cabinets that work.  Yes, I kept the ugly mirrored door medicine cabinets, because I like the storage they provide. It is what I wanted, not done for the greatest resale value, or to make anyone else happy.  I will rehang the photos sometime soon.  

The moron in chief is testing my resolve to maintain this as a virus free zone, but I remain steadfast.  When you need a break from the insanity and stupidity, come for a visit.  I promise to keep this an emotional safe zone.  

Remember the adventures of the past, dream of the adventures of the future.

    Brilliant. The medicine cupboards look ok and you kept the good lighting, something every man needs. I think I will sleep tonight thinking of Lationo? tradesmen.
