The wall was partially removed today - and we're starting to be able to visualize the new space - it's looking really great!
The plumbers were here today. They tapped the lines, installed drains, and the shower was installed! It looks great!
Unfortunately, with progress comes decisions.. Ray let us know today that the way the layout is working out, it's going to be really tight in the bathroom - The commode is practically in the shower.. While that could be convenient - I don't think most guests would appreciate it - so we're making changes once again.. Ray's partner Larry came up with an excellent idea - we're re-orienting the bathroom to put the commode and sink across from the shower - and stealing a little room (about 2 feet) from the family room. We have the extra space - The depth (from couch to TV) of the family room is still going to be about 2 1/2 feet more than the current depth, and much more overall space to boot. I'm pleased with the plan, and with both Ray and Larry for letting us know about the design flaw early, and for the ideas on making it work better.
My hand drawn plan:
