Sept. 20 work weekend

Busy weekend, beautful weather, Ben figured out how to spend Sunday after lunch......
Here's the Saturday work all finished up. And yes, the door frame is level...... This is the first new thing installed on the cabin, demolition is just about all done. We got the front of the cabin to finish up, but the back 2/3rds is go for remodel.
Sunday, me and Maria worked in slow gear, removing the ugly OSB covering the old shower access and fitting in siding to fill in the hole. The "experts" used a chainsaw to make the hole originally. Sheesh......

We also plugged the hole in the sewer line which is in the ground in the bottom pix. Used to be an old vent pipe there that was just sitting on the pipe, not screwed in, and had filled with dirt and rocks. We ran the water pump to wash it out and hopefully keep it clean , but our pump is not making a very high amount of water pressure...

I got like 10-12 spider bites on my backside which I can only guess is they are in my chair!!! Raid on order list!!!! I had planned on installing sub-floor but pulled my neck-shoulder out on the door so heaving around big sheets of wood fell off the list.

Labor Day work party

Well Labor Day is here, summer is winding down. Maybe the mosquitoes will go south soon.

We finally got the ugly walls down, took two work days to do it too....

This roof tie will probably stay and will become a solid looking beam. Basically we got 2/3rds of the cabin ready to now begin working on it. We will start with the back wall windows and door. First thing is the floor needs to be laid down, the subfloor is very bouncy, just ask Ben. Our other major project is the bathroom which is ready for work too. We need to brace the wall and then cut out the bad rotted stuff and replace it. The one end needs some masonry work as the blocks have become loose from the wall.
