How Long has it been now?

Yes, it has been a while… it is like watching concrete cure!!

Trusses are up for the second floor, kitchen is stripped, so is the old bathroom. Breaking apart a cast iron tub is a lot of fun. Here is a litte bit of advice. Wear eye AND ear protection . The Coating of the tub goes everywhere on the first whack, and it sounds like you are in a bell tower when you hit it for the first time.

Walls for 2nd floor supposed to be going up this week!

Finally an update!

Sorry no updates lately. Have been a little slow due to finishing up the tie beam and having to do some adjustments to the truss plans. Trusses supposed to be delivered on Wednesday, and start gong up there as well… Hopefully that will be what happens!!

And it continues

Garage is almost all walled up. Tie beam plywood is starting to be placed, kitchen cabinets came down. It is funny how they look fine when they are in place, but when they are taken off, they look really ratty. Looks like it is going to be another trip to IKEA!!

Здравствуйте! Darma!

Sveiks! Yuri
