I got to the job site just after seven this morning and started setting up. Once my dad arrived we continued with our cedar installation on the vaulted ceiling. We made good progress although there was a little hiccup with the can lights. My math was wrong so we had to redo a little bit. We got about halfway done and then went to the front porch. We almost finished it before preparing for tomorrow. This entailed setting up the scaffolding, bringing in more lumber, and giving the great room a good cleaning. After packing up everything I returned to the cottage and dropped off the trailer. Next my dad and I drove to Lowe’s in Kimball, where we spent much longer than expected buying appliances. We ended up getting a decent deal though. After driving home we each made a little bit of dinner.

I got to the job site around eight this morning and focused on completing the back porch. That took a bit longer that expected and I didn’t finish until nearly two. Then I went to the Goat Market to hang out with Eric and Spenser for a while. That also took a bit longer than expected. I returned to the house to clean up some and install one board on the front porch. Around five I packed up and drove down to Lowe’s in Kimball for a few tools. I next drove to campus, but the dining hall closed at seven instead of eight this evening. That was a letdown, but I did go get a few things at Piggly Wiggly. Now I’m just relaxing at the cottage.
