Week 4

Made some big changes over the week. We're getting close to the finishing stage. At least for the house.

First big job was to knock out the wall between the kitchen and the middle room. We want a combined kitchen-dining room with enough room for people to hang out in.


Knocking down more wall.


Unfortunately, there was a large crack in the old beam. Fortunately I noticed it before knocking the rest of the wall down.


So we had a guy come in and install a post to hold it up. Not the most scientific of operations, but it seems to be working. Here's the post and the rest of the wall knocked out.


The guy also finished off the trim between the wall and the ceiling.


Some more trim.


And he also turned one of our old outhouse toilets into a storage room.
