Outside Work

The past few weekends we have been taking down trees and working mainly in the yard.  This has not warranted any pictures.  Once the weather turns cold, we will continue to work and make improvement on the interior.

We did install a Rubbermaid Vertical Shed last week and during the construction, our favorite bear, General Kudzu paid us a visit.  While we were focusing on the assembly of the shed, he surprised us by coming up the steps and standing ten (10) feet away watching the construction.

The downstairs and the downstairs closet has been cleared of all the kitchen cabinets we had purchased several years ago as a closeout from Home Depot.  This took three (3) trips to get all the cabinets (they are in flats and require assembly) back to Buford and we plan to sell on Craig's List.

Over the next few weeks Brent plans on installing a top mounted damper on the chimney and preparing Blackbearry Ridge for winter.  He already has plans on installing a deck on the back of the house extending into the side of the mountain.  This will allow us to move the grills to be the back and have an outdoor fireplace.  Once the door and window designs are finalized and installed, then the design of the kitchen will also be finalized.  Longer range projects include installing a driveway up to the house (this will be accomplished after the sale of Zelda) and enclosing the second story deck to increase the upstairs living room and master bedroom.

We are never out of ideas just time and money.
