 Jim hung up his hose reel mounting board this morning in the auto bay...


Looks so good and Jim's glad to get it off the floor again!


Then he put all the faceplates back onto the receptacles...


Now that this bay is done, time to clean the floor.  It's hard to cover the floor when you're using scaffolding that has to be wheeled around, so we had a lot of plaster plops from doing the ceiling work.  Thankfully, with some water and a stiff brush, they come off pretty easily for the epoxied floor...


Once all the plaster was gone, we tried cleaning the residue off with a bucket...


But quickly decided that it would be better to spray it off with water...


Then squeegee off the excess water...


Jim repeated that a couple times but it looks fabulous now!


Jim made another mounting board for all his compressor controls - giving it a coat of primer...


Jim loves the paparazzi recording his every move - ha!


It was a beautiful fall day - we are going to start devoting some time to finishing up outside tasks before the weather turns.  So we got the Bobcat out and did some handpicking of rocks...


Putting them on the rock wall...


After we finished that load, we took a walk to the edge of the property (near where the tree butcher was working last year) to see if we could put some of our uglier rocks back there.  We found a trail that Jim had used before with the Bobcat where he could get back to one of the original rock walls that has been mostly destroyed over the last centuries.  He ended up taking two loads back there.
