Here's the picture of the screen door I built...

My next weekend cabin project...






After working for a while, now weekends are worthful to me because they are more funner and more worthwhile when you are working at a job. So my weekend started Friday morning at 10:30 a.m. because we were done with everything we wanted to get done and I already had 39.5 hours logged in. Anyways, I went down the lumber store and got wood, screendoor hardware, screen, and one gallon of polyurethane. I built the screen door and it took mostly all day and it works really great and looks really great with the cabin. It looks like it came with the cabin. I designed it so it looks like a pioneer type screen door. Then on Saturday morning, I went on another road ride with Stever Brown and Brian Whipple. Then after my ride, I varnished the floor, bunk beds, ladder, and the screen door. I put 2 coats of polyurethane on the bunk beds, 3 coats on the floor, 3 coats on the screen door, and one coat on the ladder. It should last long and keep everything from getting scratched.

Speedy came to our house for the first time and he is one heck of a great dog. He really likes to be around people. He really likes me and likes to be petted. He is really well-trained. Everytime I went someplace and came back, Speedy barks and thinks I am a burglar, well that's what normal dogs do too I guess, but he actually taps you on your knee everytime the phone rings, most dogs don't do that. I think that is really cool. He doesn't beg for food at the dinner table and he just sits there when you eat. I wish Sandy was like that because she is like crazy when it comes to food. Well, I got a picture of Speedy in the bathtub so I hope you'll all enjoy the picture.

Well, still more to do on my cabin, a new cabinet, a new tv stand(will make the cabinet and tv stand), fix the little part on the ceiling, get a stove, I got a fridge though, a little one I can put on the cabinet to put drinks in, and I will build a new wood porch with railings and a fancy roof over it next spring. But I got to get all the interior stuff done first. Oh yeah, I will buy a wood chair with a leather cushion on it from Wal*Mart I looked at the other day. It should be a really sweet cabin and everybody will fight over it when everybody comes and visit I hope.
