I figured out what to put on the shelf above the beam. Made some jambs and casing for the opening between garages. I edge banded plywood for the jambs but only had enough oak for the side casings. No way in hell I would ever pay Home Depot almost $14/ board ft so I was planning to go down to...

Heading back from Kai'ole bay near South Point, Big island

Mauna Kea access road

Another National forest road, southwest of Jerome.

National forest road southwest of Jerome. Probably about 2 miles as the crow flies from my home.

Greenie Peak, north of Red River NM

Somewhere well north of Tucson on a side trip from the Tucson wash trail, from the Wells AZ book

After a pack rat started building a nest on the battery of the 99, I decided to move everything in, even though I will need to move some out to finish a few things. First time since we got the wife's Escape and the two door that there's been no vehicles in the driveway.

Thanks! Some of it might be nicer than my house too. I was kinda in a rush on that since we were living in a camper. Hence the "don't have or want an RV ". 14 months was enough for a lifetime.

Did a kitchen sink in the bathroom, wanted something large enough to wash a small engine in. Home Depot had a deal that couldn't be beat. 27" stainless sink with pull down faucet and a bunch of other accessories for a bit over $200.

Had to order hinges for the vanity doors. Have boxes of various cabinet hinges but didn't have any with the correct overlay, soft close, for frameless cabinets. Finished the built in stereo cabinet. Hooked up an old Pioneer receiver with an Amazon tablet and a couple bookshelf speakers, and did...

About two weeks ago I finished all the drywall taping, and painting. Made some oak plywood shelves and small crown molding

Mauna Kea access road, somewhere around 9000'

Those are Rubbermaid double track standards with 14.5" brackets, available at Home Depot. Supposedly good for 225 lbs per pair. Actual shelves are just 3/4" sanded plywood. Tried to put the heavier items over the brackets so hopefully the shelves won't sag.

Made some door jambs, jamb extensions, and casing for all three doors and stained and poly'd them. Built a vanity, moved the hall bath toilet in, and installed a shiny new one in the hall bath.

I think this project, even more than when I built the house, demonstrated to me that there's no such thing as too many ladders. And leaving fiberglass ladders out in the AZ sun is not good. Some of the local contractors actually paint theirs to help keep the UV from deteriorating them...

I'm gonna repost some of my pics that webshots and photobucket screwed up. Some beach on Molokai, with a view of Lanai. I had arranged to rent an Explorer, imagine my disappointment when they gave me an XJ instead.

Whenever I have visitors from out of town, I'll take them there if they're at all interested. Some of the pink jeep drivers I wouldn't piss on if they were on fire, but most of them are cool, many compliment my jeeps.

While I was taping the bathroom drywall, I made some moldings to make the wall/ ceiling juncture a little nicer. Left the glulam beam exposed in the bathroom ceiling so sanded, stained, and poly'd that.
