Day 8

Today was one of those days that we got a lot done. We began the day finishing off the insulation on either side of the ceiling. Then put up the final sheet in the third row. After that, we put hopefully the final coat of urethane on the boards. Soon after that we began and completed mudding the screw holes in the first row. After lunch Mike (the school's electrition) came by to finish up some work on the second row and get it ready for sheetrock. He also helped put up the first piece to ensure it was square. Tomorrow we will continue on the second row of sheet rock. Today was a busy day!
Hours: 6:00
Total: 35:20

Day 19

Today was a good day down at the ski area. We began the day by staining the pieces that would soon cover the beam. After that we began putting them up this took time to get them perfect. However, soon we were on to trim we got up the first row and soon realized we were short pieces. We went to the lumber yard to get more. We stained and applied the first coat of urethane to these boards.  They go up tomorrow. Time: 6:00 Total: 67:30 Trim up! Boards to case in beam! First board up!

Day 20

Today we showed up at the ski area to find the boards applied urethane on the day prior to be dry. This means that we were able to get an another coat on them and put up three more strips in the morning. We then went to lunch and when we got back we put up the remaining strips. This signifies our last day down at the ski area. I will miss doing this every day. Hours: 6:00 Total: 73:30 Midway! All Done!

Day 9

Today we started out by sheetrocking and got one more piece in. Then while Adam was cutting the next piece Kevin and I began scraping the mud off the first row. We finished that as the electrition showed up to cut out the first two lights in the first row. While he was doing that we began to apply the second coat of mud to the first row. After that, we broke for lunch. I was unable to make it back due to a race but Kevin and Adam got the rest of the sheets up this afternoon. Tomorrow we will begin mudding. Hours: 3:10 Total: 38:30 The mud all smoothed out! First two lights cut out!
