Garage Stairs

The new garage door is supposed to be installed in about 2 weeks, so I need to get the garage ready.  First was to cover the stairs so that there isn't a liability issue there.  Also, I'd planned on doing this for a while to maximize the usable space.  Code requires that I remove the door anyway now that I've enclosed the garage.  I was able to build it using only existing lumber, and some 2x6's that I bought.  It's designed to be removable, so that I can use the space under it for storage, and so that I can pull it out when the furnace guys arrive to install the new gas furnace.

Ugly Float and Tape

Getting started on the float and tape job on the upstairs half bath.  Pretty ugly so far. This is just the first coat, which is really intended to just get the tape down.  Looks ugly, but it's actually not bad.  Won't know for sure how it will look till the last coat.  Plan is to do a texture-free level 5 finish.  Not sure if I'll be able to pull it off or not, worst case if it doesn't pan out I can just throw some texture up.

Back Wall Done

 Finally 100% done with the back wall of the house.  Windows installed, trim done, and paint. The windows will probably get pretty messy until I have time to install the edging and river rock along the edge, but that will come later.

Figuring out a plan for the sunken area, cleared it all out.  Will likely need to deal with the chimney first.
