home projects

We have been busy working around the house on planning and getting some projects done.  One thing we desperately needed to do is get the motorhome out of the driveway and behind the fence.  Some neighborhoods have rules against that but we don't.  I just felt like it needed to be done.  We use to rent a storage place but they increased the fees and we like to keep power to it in the winter so nothing freezes and breaks.  I wanted to get this project done last year but we just had to much stuff and not enough time to get it all done.  First thing we needed to do was get rid of a boat or two. haha 

The only "before" picture I could find
 

We did sell David's older smaller Donzi to a client of mine.  The our neighbor's said we could park the motorhome behind their fence while we worked on it.  Next David bought a rototiller and started tilling up the grass. 

Then he took a day off work and him and his nephew worked all weekend on leveling, getting gravel adding wall blocks and stuff.

  I just went to work at the salon.  I think David's part is mostly done but we do have someone coming next week (weather permitting) to pour cement to widen the front for more parking, easy driving to the back yard, and adding more walking room on the other side of the driveway.  Hopefully next summer we can replace the fence and get a wider gate.  I think there's only a few inches on each side to get through.  Good thing David's a good driver.  I don't think I could ever make it through without hitting it.

Our next project is planned for Thanksgiving weekend and it's to get new wood flooring.  Then throughout December we will be working more on the kitchen.
