Bedroom

The texture and paint are done and the bed has been moved in!  The walls are a little darker and a little more brown than we were shooting for, but we like it enough to leave it.  I also got the electrical done except for the ceiling fan since we have not picked one out yet.  But, the 1/2 hots work so we do have light in there.

Dock

Today was another very big day.  I found a guy on Craig's List that was selling his old approach and gangway.  Jeremy helped me pick this one up north of Cusick, drag it down to Twin Lakes and set it up today.  I need to get some decking for the gangway and make a few adjustments, but this thing is in really good shape and it looks like it will work out very well.

Bedroom

I made a quick trip up to the cabin yesterday after work and got the 2 outside corners installed.  Since I used a setting type mud on them, I went ahead and put the first coat to fill the gap on each side as well.  So now, everything is taped and a first coat has been applied to the flats as well as the outside corners.  With any luck we will have it ready for texture and paint early next week.

Bedroom

Over the weekend, Kelly helped me finish hanging the drywall in our bedroom closet.  We also got the flats taped throughout the whole room.  Last night after work I went up and got the inside corners all taped.  The last thing before we start the finish work is the pair of 45 degree outside corners.  I think we will use bullnose to make the inside of the cabin look a little more modern.

Bathroom

It has started to get a little old having only 1 source of running water in the cabin, the bathtub.  We are getting tired of washing dishes, brushing our teeth and filling drinking cups all in the bathtub.  So I decided to take a break on the bedroom and wrap up the bathroom sink.  All that is left now is to float the grout in the back splash and hook up the drain.  It won't be long!
