Spare Room Project Start

Now that the hallway's done we're going to start on the spare room. We'll be trying for a nautical theme which I hope will include lighthouses. We've got the room empty and we'll pull up the carpet, padding and the tile. I'll probably have to seal the floor before I start on the pergo laminate. It will be the same as the hall and should continue seamlessly.

Here's the room empty, except for the cable modem that feeds the house. This room was the logical choice for that because that's where the computer and game systems will be when we're done. We'll have to work around the stuff while we finish this project. Hopefully this will go faster than the hallway because there will be fewer doors and angles to worry about. We do have some wall damage due to earth and foundation settling and hopefully there will be few cracks in the concrete subfloor. If there is I'll have to buy more of the liquid cement like I did in the living room. Work will continue tomorrow.

















On another note, MTTS starts on Friday, the only day I'll be going. I'm looking forward to the event in SF, I think it's a motocross course. That will be a first to me. My front tires need to be replaced as the tread is pretty worn but that will have to wait until after the event. Should make it more interesting, front tires sliding around and all. My week long vacation starts that day and I'm considering doing the drive at least part way down to LA, maybe all the way just to say hello to DB from WhiteRoofRadio. Sure wish I could go all the way to Denver, but the MINI plant tour will make up for that. I'm confirmed for September 13, woohoo!
