Later.....

........... as time went on......

....Squeegie was allowed to move a little closer to the bathroom where Poppa was working....

...... and things were starting to look quite different in there.  All those wainscotting panels used to be the same colour as those little mats you see on the floor.  Now, they are all a deep dove gray - along with the doors and trim!  And.... there is no toilet at all, just a little garbage can inverted over the hole! It appears that Poppa has decided a whole new look is needed in there!

Poppa was now busily applying masking tape around the trim, windows and the hand-painted border at the top of the room.  The next time I popped my head into the bathroom for a peek....

.... he had the pale pink walls all prepped and ready for the next step.....

.... which was to start covering up more of the pink......

.... we left the border at the top to accent the pinky-beige colour of the countertop.  So, when all of the walls were gray, Poppa removed the masking tape to see how it all looked.  He was satisfied, so.....

.... the installation of the new toilet began.  Of course, Squeegie had to check it out before Poppa could carry on with the installation, but he did give it his seal of approval.

.... and the tank was installed on top!  Poppa is currently working on the tiles around the tub - which he feels need to be re-grouted.
