3 Kings Condominum in Ocala

Jim and I have owned a two bedroom, two bath condominium in Ocala, Florida for the past 20 years. We have rented it out all that time but since we retired we have decided to fix it up . These condos were build in the early 70s and still had the "avocado green" bathtubs, sinks, etc., so the "fix up" turned into a big project.
One thing I will say about construction is that "Murphy's Law" is alive and well in this industry. But I don't take it personally any more because I have decided that it doesn't matter who you are, a movie star, millionaire, or the Queen of England, Lowe's will still lose your oven, the cabinets will not be ready on the day promised, and electricians and plumbers still won't return your calls or work on Saturday.
I will post a few "before" and "during" pictures and soon, very soon I hope, I will be able to post some "after" pictures.
KITCHEN BEFORE:


KITCHEN DURING:



KITCHEN AFTER (sort of): This is just the cabinets installed. Please notice this kitchen is not functional. We have no oven, cook top, dishwasher or sink. But it is another step in the right direction. I will post pictures when we get those things but this will show you the difference between then and now.
