Island Power

Today, we replaced the old kitchen and dining room outlets with new, classier ones.  Nothing wrong with the old outlets, but they just didn't match the newer style ones that we've been installing throughout the house for the past few years.  As you can see, Amanda is a fanatic about getting it right the first time.

After wrestling with the stiff wires in the outlet boxes, I set up shop in the basement and ran power wire from the island junction box (mounted in the basement ceiling) to the breaker panel.

Tomorrow morning, I will clear the garage for the counter top delivery, scheduled to start around 10am and continue into late afternoon.
