![]() ![]() This is a farm, that’s how we roll in rural America. ![]() It will never be a manicured lawn. I will bring in more fill and grade and sod the area around the house, about a half acre. I’m currently cutting 4-5 acres with the brush cutter and that’s enough work as it is. Fortunately that’s done every few months during the growing season. |

Just left a client this morning. She has three quotes for a bathroom remodel 30k and up! She settled for just a tub replacement cost her 14k! Keep in mind this was a small 5x7 room…..crazy isn’t strong enough! Two tiny houses just sold in my village, 1800 sq ft approx. One went for 550 the other needing a total remodel for 450k. My little rental has to be getting close to million. |

All cattle and no hat. Well done, and done quickly, as usual.

I’m behind in my mind. The 1st framer didn’t have the manpower and he was a PITA. I was patient but when he did a few ****ups I let him go.
Funny thing about “the hat”…years back as a young man my sister bought me a cowboy hat and I wore it for a while. Looking back boy o boy I must have looked like a dork wearing that thing. ![]() |

Nothing new to report.
I have a small crew doing framing punch out for a few days. Window and doors will deliver and install next week. MEP will begin shortly. Roofing and brick are the next milestones with siding to follow. A few months and I will be ready for insulation and drywall… Then the real fun begins. Truth is, there’s a whole lot of work yet to be done. It’s wise to plan but not get overwhelmed with the process. One bite at a time. I’ve done this so many times that it’s second nature. The only thing that I am not happy with is my physical abilities due to my age. I still work at it every day but I have to take a lot of breaks, especially in the heat. |

Here we do framing inspection after MEP. They tend to drill holes in stuff.
