Refinishing Living Room Floor

The projects continue at a frenzied pace... In addition to the pool work that continues, Sharon and Dad started refinishing the living room floor yesterday (Sharon is off work this week). It is hardwood parquet with a light-oak colour. I am not a fan of parquet to begin with and this stuff just looks old and tired. So, rather than starting with a complete removal and restart, Sharon is going to try refinishing first. Yesterday was sanding day - dust everywhere but it already looked better, and today is stain day - apparently getting a bit of a two-tone effect from one end of the room to the other. More stain to go so it should work itself out by the time she is done. If Dad remembered to take some before-during-after pictures I will post them when the job is done...
