Renovation Day 5: The bottom comes out!
Day five went well. Dad got the bottom cabinets out and we were able to see the "real" floor. Turns out that underneath the existing linoleum is tile AND THEN there is the same hardwood floor as is in the rest of the house. For a few moments I gave some thought to adding some time and money to the project and get that floor done now! Dad talked me down off of that idea, but at some point in the future I would like to take up the 2 other floors and get to the beautiful hardwood for the entire house! The idea was appealing to me to do now because I hate moving the gas stove around and I figured if we were moving it to move the gas line then why not go for it... but ok ok. We won't do it now and when I am ready to do it maybe I can hire someone!
