A few updates - taken with my crappy phone...
Garage is getting closer - All tools fit with the car now which is nice.
Speaking of the car I took it out today to for a cruise and to peel the tires a bitInsurance runs out next week so it will live in the garage for now. It is much more fun to drive than I expected..
Couple pics from at the gas station

The home theater room is fully operational now - minus the built in cabinetry I plan to add as time and money permit.

I sometimes sit there...super comfortable. I put it there as we did not have any other place for it but it won't live there permanently once the room is finished.

Heh, we've got the same fridge. Don't use off-brand water filters! We tried a couple different ones, they all leaked, except the Samsung ones.

I like the wallpaper and clock.

I am almost finished making a new address sign for the house. It will wrap around the corner of the garage. It is made out of a 14g piece of steel 42" tall x 24" wide with the house numbers CNC plasma cut. Behind the cutouts there are bolts tacked on to hold a black plate offset about 1/2". The grey is just primer and the final color is the same green as our entry doors.

They look good.
Thanks - fun project.
Doing some landscaping in the front yard - some seriously big rocks coming out of the bank! The biggest one is probably 3000#.
One of the main goals is to expand the flat space in front of the house entry into the hillside and build a retaining wall. The biggest obstacle to actually doing this was not the rocks but this 4 tree stump grouping. When we bought the place we cut these 70'+ trees down anticipating this work.
The clump is so stuck in there that the excavator pulling on them could not budge them at all. So I had to pressure wash all around them and expose the nightmare of roots.

I used my sawzall to cut through all the roots I could get to
Waiting now for the excavator guy to come back and try again.
Once all the work is done we should come out with a new usable 20' x 25' of flat space - which is a pretty big deal when you live on a steep hillside.
Making some headway on the landscaping... We are adding a parking area beside the house. This was a pretty steep drop off that we are filling up with tons of rocks and dirt - some of the rocks we ended up burying are like 2' x 3'.... Lucky for us we have an abundance of dirt that needed to be removed from a bank near here. We are trying to get a flat usable space about 15' wide by 18' long-ish for added parking. We are about 1/2 way there now. There will be a couple of 4' retaining wall tiers toward the bottom of this build-up.
