RENOVATIONS

Shop renovations didn't quite go the way that we wanted it to!

I had forgotten that the previous owner had converted the indented front entrance-way of old...to a platformed bay window. We wanted to remove the platform and have more room for our 6' x 17' application table. Didn't happen!

We found that the cement pad/curb [of old entrance way] had split the space diagonally...so the platform had to stay! Did manage to get rid of the nasty rug covering it, which happened to collect every cat hair around...making it a cat fur rug? Out it went to the trailer that's headed for the dump!

PoD & Son had extreme fun with the demolition...until it turned into a salvage job...back to doing the best that they could with what they had just destroyed! All turned out well and they were able to move the monster application table to a better position. Fill the holes & a coat of paint on the uncovered platform...it will be just like new...and thankfully something easier to clean!

We have decided to have the garage sale earlier than planned! Can't wait for the "Town Wide" sale. I have mostly curio collectibles and craft/hobby stuffs.

All of my accumulated weird stuff is going on the chopping block as soon as we can manage! PoD's afraid that I will change my mind and keep it all!

Next job will be...covering walls left from the first reno...when we moved in here 2002. Tired of seeing half finished stuff!

Hopefully all goes better tomorrow!
