Our amazing floor guru has started the process of sanding these old 1835 floors and sealing with their magic solution that doesn't affect the color.  I'm thrilled.  Thank you Jeremiah at Crow Hill Flooring!

Today marks 16 days until we open our doors as The Bond 1835.  Bedding on beds, groceries in the cabinets and most of the fine details in place.  We're going to be ready.

The last two days we spent grouting and hand feathering the reclaimed brick floors which will grace our breakfast/gathering room.  They look just as I imagined, though my fingers are shot :)  Today is a furniture day, which I LOVE.  Refinishing the antique King set which will be placed in the suite.  Started it last night and its turning out beautiful.  Look for LOTS of pictures the end of this week.  

Our amazing flooring guru will be at The Bond tomorrow to start refinishing the 1835 pine floors.  Can't wait to see how they come out and will share as soon as they're done.

If you have a reservation already, we can't wait to meet you.  If you don't, then book a room and come visit the Finger Lakes! See you in 16.

We are making phenomenal progress but so much to do!  Sleepless nights and long to-do lists :)  Jeremiah the flooring guy is here and we couldn't be happier!  More pics coming later today!

When you're maxed out by all the renovations and have a nothing-is-going-right kinda day, then this happens...
