more land progress
Oct. 28th, 2007 10:26 amFriday: Install wood stove, then start on wood flooring. With gratefully received help from Ravishing Partner and Beamish Boy and Lovely Housemates ;>

...no, really, though from the pics it looks like they were just hanging around supervising, those pics are from when they brought dinner, wine and cheese up to the barn, then after we ate stayed to help install flooring. C has been scrubbing 20 years of horse...detritus off of the stalls. I think I have the nicer job.
Saturday:
Before 1a
Before 1b
After 1
Before 2
After 2
Silly worker guy
Hey, we could put on a PLAY in the BARN!
Today: run for supplies to the lumber yard, install vapor barrier, subfloor, and wood plank flooring in stalls, retrofit standard insulated exterior door to front barn doors, seal and insulate around doors, build and fit insulated window insert for composting toilet exhaust in tack room.
[EDIT: best laid plans and all...truck starter solenoid crapped out, so no lumber yard run today, truck into the shop tomorrow, and some shuffling of tasks in order to stay on schedule. Hmmph]
Next weekend: build bunk bed frames into stalls, install flooring in tack room, insulate windows, decorate and make everything pretty.
