Even splashier

Hank's progress in the last day gives you an even better idea of what the kitchen backsplash is going to look like.

What it doesn't give you is the contrast between adjacent surfaces -- nubby slate vs. glassy granite. There's also the matter of color transitions: The slate has just enough dark gray and blue to pick up the granite, and enough russet to make the jump to the cabinets.

I think I'm going to like it a lot.
