Scary Cabin

The big news in this episode of the scary cabin is that we’ve moved our sleeping arrangements to the downstairs bedroom. This is big news because it means that we’ve mostly finished the downstairs and have started work on the upstairs. There are still a few small things to finish up downstairs like baseboards and a few moldings and, of course, the utility room (it’s a small room….).

The major accomplishments that led up to the move were installing the TV. Yes, that’s right, we now have a TV in the living room. Of course we had nothing buts setup screens to watch, but we do have a TV. Also the face frame for the built-in bookcase was built, installed, and painted. Genny did a bit more paint touch-up too.

Before we could move into the downstairs bedroom it had to be cleaned out. We’ve been using that room for storage and construction (that’s where the table saw and miter saw lived). Once cleaned out, the beds were moved downstairs and the sheets washed (another milestone, we used the washer and dryer for the first time). We then realized how much stuff we had stashed away in the upstairs bedroom.

Big T’s Trees was out and trimmed all the dead wood out of the various pine trees. They also cut down a couple of stumps and ground down a couple of stumps. Besides making it a bit more open, we did get a small pile of chips out of the deal.
