Let There Be Light, release 2

I've been promising some progress on our living room construction for some time, and here it is. Two weekends ago I installed all the lighting, and last weekend I started on the hardwood floor. By "started" the floor I mean mostly putting down the sub-floor, which including drilling 250 holes in the concrete slab to anchor down the 3/4" plywood sub-floor. You can just see the first few rows of actual hardwood flooring at the very bottom of the first photo. If the process sounds a bit labor intensive, it is. Should come with a "don't try this at home" warning. But it should provide a 50+ year
lifespan for the hand-scraped white oak surface.
