Day 13

Today was another productive day down at the ski area. We showed up in the morning to find that the road had become flooded over the weekend. We had to hike into the lodge the back way. Once there the first thing to do today was to sand the second half that had joint compound on it. Once that was done was brushed off the dust and begun painting. We got the first coat on and broke for lunch. Once back we began on the second coat and completed it by the end of the day. Tomorrow we will begin on trim.
Hours: 5:00
Total: 55:00
All sanded!

First coat of paint!

Final coat!

Day 1

The moment we rolled into the ski area to begin our day I had no idea what lied ahead. The day started with removing the old lighting fixtures that were down there. However, we made quite short work of that and moved on to putting up strapping. Soon a delivery arrived that we unloaded. But we were soon back on track. At about 12 we broke for lunch. After lunch work started up again. We helped Mike (the school's electrition) rough in the electrical. Day one was a success. Hours: 5:10 Kevin Removing Wiring.  The before shot. Kevin and Adam putting up strapping.  The strapping and wiring in on one-half.

Day 10

When we showed up today the project was looking really good with all the lights cut out. I began by applying joint compound (mud) the second half of the ceiling while Kevin sanded. We also cleaned up the work space. Then Garry came by and told us to clean the surrounding walls to get the room ready to begin paint. We did that and then broke for lunch. After lunch, we continued to clean and prep for paint. We also cleaned the shop floor of urethane. Today was a good day. Hours: 5:30 Total: 44:00 Second half with joint compound! The first half sanded! The first half when we left!

Day 2

Today when we showed up we started out by putting up strapping on the other half. After that, we cleaned up the job site and broke for lunch. For the afternoon session, we began staining wood. This wood will be used as trim once the sheetrock for the ceiling is up. The lights for the second half of the project also were being put in by the electrician. Tomorrow seems to be a day for insulation. The insulation will be the biggest part of the project and take many days.  Hours: 4:40 The project as it now stands.  The stained wood.  Kevin Nailing.
