Yesterday was a good day for getting things done. Ken worked on the bunkhouse..he got our special door up. This door was on our linen closet at the house we owned on Rockwell. We started marking how tall the kids were when Russell was 2, Eric 5 and Bryan 7..Now they're 38, 41 and 43! So when we moved in 96 the door went with us to Weimar and Ken actually built the linen closet to fit the door when he built our bedroom there. So, of course when we moved from there the door went with us and now we were marking the grandkids heights! So this is a very special door. We had it in storage and when we bought this house it's been standing in the garage for the last 3 1/2 years. Now it's mounted to the wall in the bunkhouse..so we can continue to mark the growth of grandkids (only I think some of them are taller than the door) we'll see next time they are out.

| THE DOOR! |

| The door fit perfectly in the corner there behind the door.. |
He also got the wood up on one side where the loft meets the wall. He had to cut 2x4s at an angle to have something to nail too..used this really cool tool called a squangle..isn't that a cute name?!

| One side all done... |
I worked on the back porch giving it a new look! Looks really good, can't wait to get the rockers back out there. Now it looks like the front porch will be next. That's a lot bigger so will be a bit of a project.

Today we're headed for Winnemucca for the night. If Ken had his way we'd be headed for Lamoille Canyon after that..but think that'll wait for a couple of weeks till we're back out there for his last Dr appointment. :(
