Steady Days





Another long few days getting the exterior flashing and siding on with attention to every detail. Amy left this evening to pickup some bamboo flooring from someone on Craigslist who had 300 sqft of left overs. We'll only need 128 of it for the floor, but can use the rest for other interior trim and detailing.

Nothing's nailed in yet, but this salvaged wood is in great shape, by my standards. Old fir. I was happy how smoothly it went in. It has it's share of dents, but I'll sure I'll add a few of my own in no time. It was uninstalled so carefully by Trulious, who posted some free 4"x6" lumber on Craigslist, and then offered this as well once I was at his home. Much thanks to Ken Sawyer for storing it at his home until yesterday. And I apologize to my neighbors for using a power tool on Sunday, I tried to keep it minimal, I couldn't resist.
