A Small Bit of Progress on The Shack

It's been really cold for the past week, with days of clouds, rain, and snow ... definitely not conditions for working outside to continue our renovation of the north side of our Shack.  Today, though, temperatures moderated a bit and the sun was out (not that we got any of it on the shady side of the building).  My husband had some time this afternoon, and he and I worked to install windows.

It took us a while to figure out exactly what we were doing, since we're pretty much making this up as we go along.  Renovating this existing building with salvaged items like these windows isn't as straight-forward as new construction, and it takes us a bit longer when we first start a new part of the process.

We should move along a lot quicker next time, installing the other two windows ... whenever we get another day to work.  Maybe tomorrow.

Edited to add:  My husband used Photoshop to do a quick mock-up of what this side of the building will sort of look like when it's finished.  I like it!
