Stairway to.....

Well, not heaven, but almost... These stairs are heavenly compared with what was there before (see next photo).

While not taken at from the same angle, you still get the full effect of the "Brady Bunch" staircase that was originally in the house. I am happy that it is gone.

The new staircase is narrower and more traditional. Interestingly, there are nine steps where the old one had ten. We are not yet sure how the handrail is going to work, but Bob has another home he built with a layout similar to ours, so we can at least see what he has in mind.
