Providence a nice plan. I didnt consider Twoney as I don't like how all their plans have a angler kitchen. Also cuts into theatre room space too.

Still mulling over BH plan choice and the quote. McMaster still in the mix however, the plan might not work unless we can make some modifications.
This is the plan…
