Wood floors and window staining

Wednesday, Feb. 17: Today Chris and my dad continued to install the wood floor.
Max and Ben's job became breaking the new bundles of wood open with the back of their hammers. Poor Benny has a plastic hammer!! And Max is on the floor because he just fell over from the force of it breaking. He fell over every time....oh, but he was so proud!
In addition to the kitchen/dining room, the wood goes down the hallway that Chris is standing on and also will go down the hallway that he is measuring.
At the end of the day, this is how far they got.I stained the window in Ben & Sebastian's room and all four windows in the master bedroom today. What's left is the livingroom windows. Plus I'll have to go back to all the windows I did before (the first batch when we did them in place) and get underneath the locks/handles. And then I'll have to go around and add a coat of poly (or 2) to them all.
We are up and running on geothermal. As of today, there is water in our pond! (We have an open loop system.)
