Got a boat load of snow yesterday with HUGE snowflakes. It was neat to see the house draped in snow, for an hour, tooks pics and then the snow can go away. Of course this is a mere dusting to my New Englander friends.
But a few of us really liked the snow.
Denali wouldn't stay still long enough to get a picture, he was ecstatic about the snow.
With the light and the snow in the trees it was pretty, but did turn to ice that night.
The past two weekends we (you know what I mean by "we") worked on finishing up some of the structural fiddly bits left to do. Every red arrow is a spot where we needed to put in 471 screws (may be a slight exaggeration 396 is more realistic;-)). That is a lot of screws.
The Hardy Panels inside needed 16 screws at the top of each panel. What a nightmare that was. The bottom of the panels are bolted into the foundation, that part was easy.
It was exhausting holding the drill and lightly pressing and not breaking drill bits. I failed the last part, I broke multiple drill bits, heck I failed at the whole thing and Kyle kicked me off the project. Ahhh, darn it!
Starting to get things laid out for installing the showers, thinking of using this system to build the angle of the shower floor for proper drainage, hope it works.
We also decided on a color plan for the outside....more on that later:-)
It's so pretty! The snow, not the amount of screws you need to put in!
ReplyDeleteDenali is missing the snowshoeing trips, oh well once the house is finished. Looking great for sure. And now you leave us hanging, dying to know the color plan.
