No Airstream Work










Well, we're all moved in, mostly.. just a few more miscellaneous items left at our old house. So, the demolition has started on the room that will become our new kitchen. We are removing a load bearing wall (framing it out with a 5X10 beam) to punch out into part of the porch to make a eat in sun room / breakfast nook. This will make the kitchen 23' wide at that part of the room x 22' the other way. We've removed the old wall (ribbon construction) and put in a temporary support system while we wait for the beam to arrive. The new sheetrock will go in next week, then the oak flooring will be finished off and then Zoe's appliance will go in. I'm waiting on 4 large double pane'd windows (2 - awning style and 2 sliders ) to replace the 4 picture windows in that room.. these were ordered 2 days ago and will take approximately 2 weeks to come in.... it's coming along! I've got to get Sophia up here so I can work on the heating and get her wheels over to my Powder coater!! Here are a few pictures of the progress.
