Hit the Deck

Now that the deep freeze has broken, I am getting something done again. Somehow or other I was able to find something that needed more urgent attention than the building project almost every day that the weather was below zero. Once, when I was mentally preparing to face the minus-30 windchill, my wife thoughtfully provided the opportunity to disassemble our 5-disk DVD player to remove the library disks that refused to come out. Surprisingly enough, it still works after reassembly.

This past weekend, I started actually putting down the subfloor decking. It went pretty well, though I had to keep sweeping the plywood clear of the falling snow in order to tell where the joists were. Only another 30 sheets, 1200 screws to go.
