Finished painting the camp, next is doubling the size of the storage closet under the camp, then maybe new carpet.
Also thinking of getting a new larger TV down there pre FB season.

nice work.

and salmon, you're kitchen looks like it should be in home & garden or something.


I want to build some jumps this summer. I already have my plans drawn up...just a matter of getting the lumber and putting it together.

Contracted out the granite. Had a buddy build the cabinets. I stained, sand and sealed and poly'd the cabinets. I laid the tile floors and painted walls. Was a bitch but finally is finished. I also remodeled the whole inside of the house. All except for one of the bathrooms. Took me one whole year to do it all.

ETA All of this was brought on by the flood that we had May of last year. Insurance gave me 50k so I went to work.

Just some minor shite:
Replaced the chlorinator on my pool
Replaced the pool pump
Replaced some crap on my fiber optic light for the pool.
Wife wanted some flood type lights that shine up in the tress

I need to add some recessed lights in the den, but I am waiting until winter to get in the attic
