Yes, orange grout. This your first preview of the new basement room which we have affectionately named THE SHRINK. The SHRINK used to be a dirt-floor-no-ceiling-unfortunate-excuse for a room (otherwise known as a root cellar). Rich has been working at it on and off since early summer. He dug down the floor a foot, creating nice mounds of dirt which lived on our lawn for months, for little boys to enjoy :). He poured cement to make a floor, sealed & painted ancient stone & brick walls (which I wanted to keep for “character”). He built a ceiling and installed recessed lighting along with some other electrical features. He painted doors orange and put in replacement windows and trim. He installed ceramic tile and blessed me with orange grout. Now Rich is working on some more wood trim and then it will be done. When THE SHRINK is done, which literally may be next week or next year, we’ll post before and after pictures. Till then, I leave you with orange grout, in the coolest room in Claremont (by the coolest guy). :^)
