Putting Up the Walls... and then some




Well well well things are looking good around here! I believe it’s safe to say the outside is done! All the shingles are on and secure, the exterior insulation is in place and tucked in! There may be a few touch up places here and there but the big important  stuff is done. What a relief!

Now that the outside is all done we’ve finally made our way and stay inside. Although I have to admit we've been moving a little slower these last couple of weeks. The area we live in was hit with a COLD spell, as a matter of fact we even got snow! A rare thing for this area. Since we didn't have any heat in the trailer it too was COLD and uninviting to work in. On top of that we had family come out to visit for over a week for the Thanksgiving holiday, which was time well spent. So our pace of getting work done was slowed down drastically for about 2 weeks. Although Fionnbharre being the super charger worker that he his was determined to still get work done even it was just a little bit. With his due diligence and focus he was able put all the side and ceiling walls up and finished working on some of the interior design details.
Here are a few photos of the visual work that was done.
    

 
 


















  Putting Up The Walls

We’ve stepped out of the box a little with our side walls and are using wood floor underlayment instead of drywall or Paneling. Drywall was to heavy and wood paneling was spendy.  Its not exactly common to put flooring on your walls but it is sturdy very light weight and should do the trick. Once all the walls and ceilings were on, Fionnbharre, with a little assistance from my dear mother patched up all the nail holes, cracks and seems to make sure we had a super smooth and clean finish.
