Subfloor and Hardwood Sample

Got part of the subfloor installed in the laundry room. Yesterday I also picked up a 20sqft sample of the hardwood flooring I plan to use in the kitchen. The laundry room will actually be tiled, but this is a good spot to do a color test. It's a locally-sourced zebrawood. I looked at some of the engineered woods and just didn't care for them. This is solid, tongue and groove hardwood, so it can be refinished and restained any number of times. I will probably stain it just a hair darker than it looks now. I'll do some stain tests as I get closer to doing the flooring.
