Hedge Trimming

Did more work on the egress window, but not worth showing.  I did manage to do some serious trimming on the shared hedge between my neighbor and I.  It had become so large an unmanageable that it was time to cut it back.  Didn't have a very good picture of it before, except for this shot I took of the car.

Here it is now.  It's almost 6' shorter in some areas.

You can actually see the house over the hedge now, where before you couldn't.  Right now it's thin and ugly, as we (my neighbor helped) cut so much out it exposed a lot of thin areas, but it will grow back in.  Plus, having it this short makes it much easier to maintain, as previously, even on a ladder you couldn't reach to trim the top.  Now you can reach everything with a hedge trimmer.

Craigslist Find

I'm still using a lot of old Ikea Expedit stuff for storage.  It works, and is flexible, but not fancy.  Been on the lookout for something better.  Ran across this on CL for only $300, and got them to deliver. Right now it's just staged in the open area of the basement.  I should be able to finish the framing and drywall in the old theater, and I'll move these in there.

Basement Bathroom Progress

 Just for reference, here is the original, claustrophobic, non-code-compliant basement bathroom. And here is progress on the much larger bathroom, even though to overall footprint is the same size. The shower has been expanded to fill the entire width, and the ceiling raised in the shower area.  The original was a generic shower stall, and was very dark and cramped.  This will be much brighter and while the dimensions are small, won't feel nearly as cramped.
