We've been working hard on our new mudroom. Thomas and I started work on it yesterday, framing the floor/foundation and leveling it all. This morning we hammered in the OSB (thick 4 x 8s). We were scrounging around for paint in the tin shed, and Thomas stopped by his dad's on his way into Springer for something, but his dad had something we could use. Well it turned out to be a mess os curdled sludge, but David and Andres showed up just in time and ran home to get some sage-green paint. It'll do for a floor! Mike showed up with the "brush hog", a tractor with a mighty mower on the backend, and mowed down nearly a quarter of the acreage along the road. I must admit that it looks a lot less ragged. Anyhow, since the guys showed up wanting to help, I backed off and weeded and weeded some more with the exception of few opportunities to help. I weeded about a third of the flower garden from the bind weed going to seed. And the mudroom now has all the walls framed and a couple pieces of siding on it. Pretty cool! I have all sorts of pictures, yet to come... |
