Cave do-over

Karl....when I moved into my then new house in "80" my wife and I had an agreement. She got the first and second floor and the cellar was mine. And its still that way.

Looks great Karl

Do you have the stair parts yet? carpet or wood on the steps?

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Thanks Slip, yeah stairs are done, (wood, cut my risers, and stuff today, and installed). I'll post a pic tomorrow, just in from Lowell, looooong night, but another win for the kids team

Flap, sorry, but, in a way it's all your fault ... I had to do something while I was waiting for you to call about that boat ride, Aug, Sept, Oct..... no call
... had to do something to pass the time

I know what you mean Karl but I have not been out in my boat since early September. Fishing for me sucked this year ( cept for tuna but it ain't my boat). It ain't ova yet but I hear someone singing very softly. The weather sure hasn't cooperated. Just when it looked like it could get good on the beach, wham, 8 days of wind , rain and run-off. Oh well there still is a little time.

Why even try.........

I hear ya Flap, I've had a couple of "good nights", and chased a lot of skunks.

Slip, here's the stairs, nothings "finished yet, might end up with a runner, will decide later. That funky closet door under the stairs, and the little doorway near the chimney cleanouts... thinking of getting some WP4 and building them outta that... what U think

WP4? what's that?

Ya I see it's not finished, you need ballisters and railings for both sides.

Why no skirt boards?

You've been busy I can tell.

time to fish

Gonna go with a K.I.S.S. approach, as open a look as possible. I wanted to wall straight up, enclosed staircase, but was vetoed by the boss, she wants the open look, so that's, that.

Back to work, vaca over, so it will be catch as catch can for a while. Probably poke along with mud and tape now, as time allows. Still soccer season, and post season playoffs coming soon, and I got a couple more trips down the sand to do, I hope.
