It was a fairly successful weekend (and very hot one until Sunday). Rick installed a window in the master bedroom on Thursday. The old windows are high, small, and in poor condition (3' x 3'). We'll upgrade to 3 x 4' windows and will work them in as we can. The hot water heater closet in the 3rd bedroom was framed in, and a new dryer vent area was created.
On Saturday, we tore out the back of the original master bedroom closet that has the crawl space for under the house and attic access. That area will now be the 3rd bedroom closet. The initial plan was to have a much bigger master bedroom closet that would be the previous desk and closet areas for the 3rd bedroom. We were having a hard time deciding on closet doors--it was a much larger closet area but was narrow and long and the doors presented problems. We decided that since we were going to have to knock out most of the wall anyway for long closet doors and since the room was over 15 ft long, it made more sense to just knock all of it out and make a walk-in closet using a little of the ample room space. We can now make the other (3rd bedroom) closet a little bigger too so that it's easier to access the attic and crawl space.
Rick started setting up the closets today, and I worked on cleaning up and carrying out all of the demo stuff and removing nails and staples from the hardwood floors.
We also had a large snake visitor (a 6 ft"ish"coach whip, we believe) twice this weekend that is most likely that same one that left his skin in the backyard a month or two ago--not too thrilled about that!
