http://www.pebc.ca/EnglishPages/General/HomePage.html C'mon up.

Looks like I would have to take the Board Exam, just like a new graduate. hnoes

School was a looonnnggg time ago.

But you never know...

DRTH,

That photo could have been taken most anytime around here. The locals have a way of enjoying life. otfl As for Red Green, he's our inspiration.

Hey, what's that over in the field?

There must be a hundred of 'em.

Looks like dinner.

Tammy and Jane Ann didn't show up, so I guess I'll find some local help to unload those doors.

The three overhead doors are 2.5 weeks away.....coming from somewhere in Ohio, I think.

Please keep those geese up there we have enough of them down here as it is. What brand of door are you using we supply many of the manufacturers with parts.
BTW take one from the back of the flight the older birds are up front the young tender ones are to the rear.

Clopay is one of our biggest customers. Galvanize is the best we can do

I took a much-needed break for a few days, after pouring the floor, but got back at it today.

I got all three 2" x 10" overhead door-frames mounted, as well as the main east-facing window installed. Next, I'll install the north-facing window, followed by the French terrace doors.

That is really coming along nicely, Bob.

I've got more done, but I'll just add a peek at the sealed concrete floor for now.

Shineyyyy , Looks nice !

 

[Tom Bryant]

Looks nice. When I did mine I put down 4 coats of sealer than went to Vegas for a week. It looked like a high dollar coating when I got back and was completely cured. You need to re-coat sealer every 2 or 3 years to keep it looking nice but it's economical and makes a nice surface that is easy to keep clean.

Reading the can again it doesn't say that you have to go to Vegas for a week but that does keep you off of the floor to allow a thorough curing.

 

[67HEAVEN]

Tom,

I wanted to use more coats, but the container says, "Roll or brush on an even thin coat. Do not use a second coat", right in the directions.

Don't know why. :confused

 

[o2bnkc]

I'm jealous, Bob. It sure looks great.

 

[Tom Bryant]

It might just be a difference in the product. I looked downstairs for a can but I must have used it all. I think mine listed a curing time before recoating. It has been 4 or 5 years now and it is holding up well. I'd like to recoat the driver car garage but I don't know where I'd put all of the junk in the meantime.:L

The call came. All the overhead doors will be installed on Tuesday. Then, finally, I can get my final building inspection. Good thing it'll be closed in soon. We got snow flurries and high winds yesterday. The weather improved today, but I have a feeling it won't last.

Meanwhile, I've been kinda busy trying to get a few other outdoor projects completed before the big freeze.

Remember back a few pages and the discussion about the concrete patio? Time for it to bite the big one.

And, since the septic tank is under there, why not pump it out while we're at it?

I feel 800 gallons lighter already. otfl

We all know how important it is to keep The Boss happy, right?

Front yard on Monday morning.

Front yard this afternoon.

The walkway around to the back and the new patio are next up. Momma's happy.

Soon, I can get back to the important stuff. The shop build.

 

[GerryLP]

Man, you have racked-stacked-packed a ton of points with the boss. She must feel in heaven...touche'...lol:L:eyerole

 

[67vet]

The walkway looks great. Lots of cuts, lots of labor. Worth the work.

Thanks, Gentlemen, but you ain't seen the half of it.

Did I mention that I love playing in the dirt? otfl

I've gotta hurry up so I can re-focus on the shop build. :W

 

[Scott Winebarger]

It is all about the points!

 

[DRTH VTR]

What are you doing here, Bob?

 

[Evolution1980]

What are you doing here, Bob?

I'm guessing

• a flower bed
• a stone path
• burial plot for a 18ft Burmese python
