Dry winter

It’s been an unusually warm and dry winter. Lucky and Kiley have been enjoying the woodstove in the mornings. 

In the afternoon, the doggies enjoy bathing in the warm sunlight.

While the doggies were relaxing, Erika was busy creating a log wall masterpiece. I think we need a bigger wood shed.

My goodness that’s a lot of wood! 

Erika is good with a chainsaw. She's very fast and accurate. 

I had a chance to get the second floor (guest room) rail painted. Without paint, the rail and the logs create a "too woodsy look". The painted rail provides a clean finished look that goes well with the white trim around the house.

 The floor is ready for tile and the walls have been prepared for paint. The room is large and will require 450 square meters of tile. The tile will have a high gloss finish giving the room an even larger appearance. I’ll be posting pictures in the next post. I’m still on schedule for a June 2019 completion. 

The entryway needed some color, so I made some flower arrangements. The flowers provide a nice warm touch to the entry.

       Up next…progress on the upstairs guest bedroom. Stay tuned.
