That's fantastic!

When we lived in Hawaii, we lived the last months in a high rise. A guy
moved in adjacent and immediately started remodeling. When he went to buy
his furniture, he took a trip to North Carolina and had it all shipped to
Oahu. He invited me in to see it after it was completed, I was interested
in the furniture he had picked.

What he had chosen was mostly a mixture of French Provincial and Ethan Allen
type furniture, but he had put a fake fireplace in the living room. The
condo was wall-to-wall furniture. Guess he had over-bought - :-)) The
prices ARE good in NC, I've heard.

Good luck,
