Investment/Recreational Property Blog Week 2


Week 2 August 10 and 11

Susan and the kids along with her sister and mother went up to the property on Friday afternoon. They played in the creek for most of the afternoon. I did not get there until well after dinner.

 
Cleared the patio of junk, going to put BBQ here to hide from the rain.

 
New railings going up this week or weekend

 
Work in progress, the garage. Had a few good fires with the cabinets that came out of here!

 
Long story. lol


 
Lawn cut and started opening up the creek bank of weeds



 
Across the creek I opened up an area so the kids can have an easy place to get in and out of the water

 
Peeled the ugly wallpaper to find ugly green paint. One of the next projects!
