Cabin Update

Since we haven't had a construction update in a while...

The trimwork is nearly done! Only the interior doors are left. It is so exciting to walk in and see beautifully stained window boxes!

We finished putting plywood up on the interior walls of the stall and workshop downstairs. Next step there is caulking all of the cracks and painting the ugly press board with a nice solid color.

Mom bought cabin grade flooring a few days ago. It is beautiful unfinished oak. This is going to be a new experience for us! We have installed pergo and laminate flooring, and we have refinished hard wood flooring, but we have never installed hard wood before. We'll see how this project goes...

It is hard to believe that we have come as far as we have. We are getting ready to lay flooring! So difficult to imagine that this place that has been sitting unfinished for so many years is actually beginning to look like a home.

I apologize for the lack of pictures, but I will take and post some in the coming week or so. We have a very busy schedule for the next few weeks and are scrambling to make it to a final inspection. Collier and I are hot and heavy into school and beginning to tackle the big assignments. Meanwhile, we are getting to the BIG projects at the house, so we are constantly on the go. Our final moving week will be the second week in November, so we must be done by then!
