Some place nice to get stuck in....

Now that we are done with clearing out the house, time to do more involved work here.   First up, mudroom.  This time Tommy was able to help.   They squeezed it into a one afternoon fix.   It is for winter only, and it was repaired for just that.   The east wall was replaced and the roof is coming this weekend.  The pictures tell all.
The buckled wall
 The rotted bench


















pulling it out














The outside wall that had fallen over the last few months

The one literally fell out
Then replace the floor where the boot box was
As Tom was putting the ceiling support up, the wall just fell off on it's own
So time to take the whole thing out
easier for Tommy to work
He cut the studs for the wall while Tom nailed them in.  Getting dark!
Collin had brought Jess home after a day out and helped put a few boards up.
closed up for the night.   Tom is getting a new door from work so it will close correctly.
Looks like there is a gap, but it is because it is a pre-painted sheet of wood. No eastern windows but it  smells much better in there!
