DEMO DAY (June 24th)

Yesterday Fred took the day off and we started the demo on the house.  The first part to come off was the back porch/bathroom.  We (Fred, Brandon and I) all had a chance to tear some of it down.
This is the bathroom that no longer exists. Yeah!


The backporch
Here is Brandon helping Fred remove screws from the roof so we could take it off.
The start of the demo.  Brandon got first swing. He knocked down the whole porch.

Cabin Creek Trip

This past weekend Fred, Brandon and I along with some friends - Dave and Tammy went camping in West Yellowstone at Cabin Creek Cabin.  The first night we camped at the trailhead.  We had sun, rain and sleet.  It must have gotten down to about 30 degrees because there was ice on the truck the next morning.



On Saturday we four-wheeled up to the top of the mountain then hiked in to the Cabin Creek Cabin.
Saturday evening Fred and Brandon cut down a tree using a cross-cut saw.  After the tree fell, all of us had a contest to see who could cut thru the tree the fastest.  Fred and I won with 16 seconds.
Sunday morning Fred and I headed out first to the top of the mountain to four-wheel back down to the truck.  David, Tammy and Brandon started out about an hour later just to have to turn back and go to the cabin because there was a grizzly bear on the trail.  It was probably there when Fred and I were hiking but we weren't lucky enough to see it.  It hung around about 10-15 minutes then made its way up the trail and into the willows.

July 17th Demolition has begun/New bathrooms

We started demolishing the front porch.  We will clean off the logs and paint them brown and get rid of the lime green.  Yeah!
The other pictures are of our new bathrooms.  We haven't gotten the new vanities in but will put pictures on when they are in.
