We spent an hour this morning discussing the electrical plan with our project manager, Dan. We chose locations for electrical outlets, cable TV drops, and recessed LED ceiling fixtures. All of the new ceiling lights will be LEDs, and we are taking this opportunity to add more outlets in older parts of the house and to replace some of our existing lighting with LED fixtures.

The contractor will provide all of the recessed lighting, but it’s up to us to go shopping for bathroom lighting fixtures, ceiling fans, and a new outdoor light for the back door.

In other news, the new sliding exterior door for our family room showed up today and is currently residing in our garage.

Meanwhile, the framing crew installed more siding.

More siding is completed, including fascia for an exterior light and electrical outlet.
