Saturday, one week to go. Baby.

How do you like the modern austerity of the barren stair detail we got going? How about the red carpet treatment that Pete has on the floor? That red stuff is actually the rubber pad with the little beads underneath for moisture to escape. Cool stuff. The stair is sheathed with Pete quality drywall on the underside, the sides are going to have some nice VG fir trim soon. What goes on top of the red stuff is the engineered bamboo flooring, which pretty much just floats on the top of it, with glued tongue and groove joints. Here's Danny's room with the stuff all layed down looking pretty finished. Pete arrived about 1:00 today; not sure how far he got but will see soon.


Danny helped out today, moving dirt from the back yard to the front, helping to fill out those planters in the front. Looking good!!





And incidentally, I installed an outdoor light by the new basement door, with a motion switch. Very cool. Here it is with the door open, and you can see (if you squint and imagine a clearer picture than what you actually see here) the new tile on the floor of the utility room.


Awsome!!!
