Vacation Gets In The Way

The pedestals for the massive entry logs are poured and the capstones set on top, setting the stage for raising the massive logs and completing  a major project. After that I can build the front porch and install the remaining rock work, which would complete the exterior of the house. On the inside, I have completed the oven cabinet, cut down the master vanities for vessel sinks, built all the shelving and cabinetry in the master closet, and built the flat screen tv surround frame. Next up is finishing all the exterior doors and mortising for locks, completing the woodwork in the master bath, and completing the shelving in all closets. It's also time to set the commodes and vanities in the bathrooms, and the mudroom sink, in addition to installing all the lighting and switches and plugs. The septic man will be here within the next couple weeks and after that we will have working plumbing, so hurry up septic guy. This is the time for small items by the dozen, I wish I were better versed in plumbing and electric so I could do all of that instead of relying on others. No matter, its all coming to an end anyway and I am READY. Brother Scott took a whole pack of kids camping at Steele Creek on saturday, so Matt and I joined them. I had a gig at Low Gap also, so I swam all day before heading up the hill  to Low Gap, and then went back to the campsite and played guitar with our neighbor till late. There has been so much vacationing going on that it's been hard to get anything done, and we have a condo on Table Rock Lake all this week so the delima continues. We also got some good rain last night and the river is actually rising, which would make it hard to stay off it. But otherwise, I gotta get to work and get things done. I will keep an eye on the river gauge though, Have an awesome day everyone, The Hollowhead
