I forgot to mention the other day that I talked to Bill. He sounded very upbeat and said he's making slow progress.

Excellent Mike.

Very nice Tom. Obviously the stove is in the lower level!

The roofing looks great. I was going to suggest a tin roof for something different.

Congrats on another outstanding build.

Great job on the bracing.

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening and breakfast Larry. It's a little chilly your way. I'm not sure there is much more you can do to improve your current project.

Starting out here with a feel like of 33F and headed to 63F. Yesterday I colored my remaining correctly sized strips. I don't think it will be enough but after animal chores I'll glue down what I have. If I go MOH wants to come with me and go to the Oriental food store. It's on the same road as the LHS about 3 min away but there is always a very heavy traffic intersection between the two.

Tomorrow MOH and daughter have a rescue event about 90 minutes away and the 2 recent rescues are going to their new home.

That's it for me.

I hope everyone has a good day.

The PO parts are very well done. I think I'm going to give the vines a try. I never realized there is brown India Ink.
 

I'll definitely be following.

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening Philip and Breakfast Rick. I hope your heater gets repaired today Rick.

Just got back home from my walk at a damp 57F from the early morning rain. The sky is still gray and overcast.

Yesterday I "planked" all of the colored wood and I'm not even half way done with the barn. I don't know if not enough strip wood was included (unusual) or what the
issue is. The pouch it came in was sealed when I got it. The planks are 2x10 size so I will color what I have but I see a trip to the LHS in my future.

So much for my day.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Mike I use 2 large heavy books and put the material sandwiched between tin foil.

Ron condolences on your Aunts passing.

The tower looks very good Jeff. Is the coloring for a specific RR or generic?

Good Morning All,

Today for breakfast is coffee, cereal, bagels, yogurt, OJ, and soda.

Starting out the day at 39F and getting into the 60's and maybe even higher. I can't remember. Yesterday I did a later walk then completed the wall bracing and then colored more strip wood.

Today after chores and floors I'll start "planking" the walls of the barn. I also need to give Bill a call later.

Rick I'm glad you're feeling better.

I hope everyone has a good day.

It happens to the best of us Dave, not that I'm the best.
