the kitchen gaps

After working at 520 this morning, we came back and started more walls here. 

So long ago when we needed to get the place finished to rent out, we knew that the new drywall left a gap between the ceiling and walls.  I knew that, eventually, I would have to tear down the ceiling and make it a) safer, b) nicer to look at, c) lighter for the structure to hold (a 14′ unsupported span), and d) easier to put in real fire rated walls between the two suites.  So today was the day to fill in the gaps as the new ceiling is now up. 

Dave did a great job, as usual, with the kitchen ceiling. 

The attic hatch is now mudded and ready for trim.
