The crown molding is done!  It looks great and now we just have to go round and fill a thousand nail holes.  I love the way it looks.  Just spent the last hour cleaning up all the resulting sawdust from every surface in the kitchen.  We decided that using the mitre saw in the kitchen was preferable to suffering the bitterly cold temperatures out in the garage, but it did make a bit of a mess.  We had to go to Lowes and get an extra length of molding probably due to the number of practice cuts we had to do while we were figuring out how to make the joints.  Had lunch while we were out but got right back to work as soon as we got home again.  Looking forward to relaxing this evening.
