Open for Business

After a very long journey, the clinic is finally open for business. There are still a few finishing touches left to complete, but we scheduled a few appointments this week for a "soft" opening. We have few kinks to work out, but we will have a smooth operating machine before long.

We chose some unique furniture for displaying our frames. We found old ladders from a cherry orchard in Loveland, Colorado, which we constructed into the A-frame shelves with glass.

Countertops

All of our countertops arrived today. The front desk took a significant amount of time to fabricate. The installer made multiple trips and spent several hours working on the core for the countertop. Unfortunately, they had to reconstruct the countertop a few times to get a prefect fit. The good news is that we have a beautiful, perfectly fitting top for our front desk.

The office is really starting to come together. We've had a lot of people stopping in to check on the progress. Our countdown has begun ... we can officially see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Proper Plumbing

We have a running water, which means we have a working toilet. No more porta-pottie!

Our Own Kind of Fireworks!

Most of the holiday weekend was spent wiring lights throughout the building. The pictures for this post display the lighting in the patient waiting area, the optical and the hallways. We were very excited to flip the switch and see our lights ... our own kind of fireworks.

It rained all day, so we weren't sure of the Town of Windsor would proceed with fireworks. We were lucky enough to sit in our building and have a first row seat to watch the beautiful display. this was a holiday that we will not forget!

The Carpet Is In

Our carpet installation was completed today. The floors look fantastic. The carpet has tied all of the other finishes together, and the office is starting to take shape.

Cabinets

Our cabinets were moved into the building. The finish carpenters have begun to hang cabinets throughout the office.

Floors, Floors, Floors

The office will be finished with several types of flooring. The front entrance is 12x24 tile laid in a brick pattern. The front desk is surrounded with a circle of maple hardwood on the diagonal.

The staff bathroom and mechanical room have solid serface material. The remainder of the office will be carpet.
