Level with me

August 20, 2011

Alok and some family members have been hard at work getting the walls and ceiling ready for drywall. Here are some pics:



Those little pieces of wood on the wall are what we use to level it out.... and by we, I mean Alok, Craig, and Robert.


The ceiling. The string apparently helps with leveling.


Dining room ceiling


Living room ceiling and wall


Ceiling in the living room


Foyer



Now, the issue is that all of our ceilings and walls will be level, but our floors and our doorways will be more noticeable un-level. That's OK though. We'll take what we can get ;-)


Compare the doorway to the ceiling.... although I can never hold the camera level either.


We also had our deck powerwashed in preparation for the painting that is about to occur:













We even had this back little deck powerwashed. What a difference some water makes:


Before... notice the moldly green tint

After:





We also had some branches and all hanging limbs removed.







While that looks better, what is going on over here:






This weed or weed-like plant is growing all over our yard.... and in some places is waist high!

Apparently, we have some very fertile soil (and some really bad gardening abilities). Maybe we should just make this our farm area and plant some corn here.

I also noticed this snork-like pipe coming out of the roof that was placed here by the HVAC people!!



That's all for now.
