2015 year end wrap-up!

Bonnie and me were fortunate enough to have a weekend to ourselves to spend some quality time together and winterize both cottages.

We hung out with the neighbors Friday night. Saturday afternoon, we winterized the Cedar Cottage and then watched the Buckeye's game back at Captain Ron's place.

On Sunday morning we got rolling on the winterization of our cottage. Around noon, we were done for the year!

2015 was a big year for cottage progress and we almost completely finished. Only remaining items are painting several doors, ceiling trim and washer/dryer install.

Taking a quick look on the inside, here is a quick peek at the great room...

Looking back to last year at this time, here is the final photo taken in 2014...

Last year, was all about getting the lot graded and the lawn seeded. You can see a little snow accumulation on the roof too. This year was focused on finishing the trim on the inside and then the wrap-around deck. I am really happy with the results. The cottage looks much more balanced now and the approach to both front and back doors is much more functional.

Thanks to everyone who helped this year and for being patient with me throughout the ultra-long deck project!

Until 2016...
