ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVES AND GET READY FOR THE GRUNT WORK |
|

| Now that we had the house our first big job was ripping out carpets so we could get the hardwood floors redone. Thanks to Doris, Doug and Esther for all their hard work. | ||||

We spent a whole day removing carpet but mainly pulling nails and staples out of the floors. | ||

Painting the undercoat. |

....now it's time to put everything back up.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This is the finished product of both the living room and dining room. Well
except to build a new dining room table.....but that's still to come!

BASEMENT What was once 2 separate rooms is now one big room. We turned this into the laundry and brewery where Roy, the brew master, does his thing.
|
||
|
The original 2 rooms.
|
It was quiet a challenge to dry wall this room. Nothing was square or even close. |
|
|
Carol's work bench. Yet to be developed. |
Our gear storage area. Will get to it one day. |
Someday to be the workout room?
|
|
GARAGE It was a pretty scary place with everything just thrown in the door. Dad came to the rescue and helped put in lights and build a shadow board. Roy was the planner for the shelves which certainly helped to get things off the floor. Still lots of work to be done in here though.
