Walled In

Today’s weather was downright cool and perfect for doing more construction at C&C’s. I contributed one of my drills and a pair of sawhorses so that we could get the exterior plywood cladding up on the first half of the addition. We’re hoping to have the roof on within the week. It’s so exciting to be a part of this!

It’s so nice to be able to spend at least part the weekend outside working hard building something that will most likely outlive me. I can already imagine the number of evenings I am going to sit in that new living room enjoying a glass of home brewed white wine remembering how much fun we all had building the space.

I had a dinner planned for when I got in, but Caroline insisted on throwing together dinner and Laura always has a pie in her freezer so we all ate together. We also averaged 1 bottle of wine each. I think I only had two, maybe three, glasses total, but I suspect Charles might have topped up my glass a few times when I wasn’t looking … πŸ™‚

I might be off the hook for construction tomorrow, which is fine since I need to finish prepping the exterior of the rig for pulling out Monday. It might be good to remember that my house has wheels!

  1. I’ve built a few places, and it really is a satisfying feeling to complete it. Does “pulling out” mean you’ll be heading to the States soon? It would be great to get to meet you in the SW this winter. Have a safe trip.

  2. I have to pull out to go to the out of province safety inspection first thing Tuesday morning. Will likely leave Monday after dinner and spend the night in the shop parking lot.

    Winter plans will be clearer once the inspection is done.

  3. It’s been so long since I drank wine I suspect if I had three glasses I would have trouble walking home. At least you didn’t have to drive. πŸ™‚

  4. It was three glasses with food over three hours, I could drive in such conditions. Three glasses in rapid succession on an empty stomach would find me dancing on the table! πŸ˜€
