Memorial Day Crackhouse Update

Well, it’s not technically Memorial Day yet, but it really doesn’t matter around the venerable Crackhouse since renovation work is going on unfettered. Today Dennis, the drywall finisher wrapped up the third pulling of the drywall mud, thus completing that end of things. Tomorrow the dried mud gets sanded, and on monday the painter comes in to prime the walls and ceilings and the carpenters return to get rolling on various things.

So, anyhoo, here’s the current status:

Here’s the view looking from the bedroom into the newly formed walk-in closet and master bath–previously a small bathroom and the other half of the weird anteroom respectively

And finally, here’s our shower enclosure in-progress. The inside will be tiled and that borded up window opening will be filled in with brick glass

If this sort of progress continues, I may have to stop calling it “The Crackhouse.”
