Weekend Work

I pretty much worked at the house all weekend. My dad and brother came up early Saturday morning to start the master bath. I now have a hole to put the tub into. Spencer filled the drain in with concrete and prepped the shower for tile.

I cleaned up and burned two piles of tras
After that dad got me started on staining the doors and trim pieces. All the molding and trim will be stained dark brown.


I got all the three pocket doors stained and the guest bedroom bifold closet doors. I still have to stain the door frames and doors for the three bedroom doors and tons of trim and molding. I can go over this week after work and get the rest done. I actually like staining you don't have to be neat like painting.

I did take a break from working Saturday night to watch the game with Kev at a friend's house. 

We both went to the house today. I finished staining the doors and trim pieces in the pictures above and he stacked firewood. Yes, I know I say we do that ALL the time, but there is SOOOOO much of it. I need to take a new picture. We now have three rows and a small pile that still needs to be stacked.

It took us a little over four hours and we only flipped the canoe once.  We came to some quick rapids and very low trees. While trying to duck under the trees, so our heads didn't get knocked off, we both leaned too far and there we went. Luckily everything was in dry bags and tied down. Well, almost everything. Kev was trying to put his phone back into the dry box but didn't get to it fast enough. His phone got wet, but seems to work ok after sitting in a bag of rice for a few days. I didn't have my shoes strapped tight so they slid off. A friend in front of us managed to grab one shoe and one paddle. We carefully walked the canoe across the rapid and dumped the water out. I will admit I was pissed off about my shoe. I didn't talk to Kev for awhile. I know it wasn't his fault, but I wanted to be mad at someone. He promised he would replace th
