Barn Project Day 13 + 14 - Stairs Fireplace + West Window In
The crew was on another project Monday and Tuesday so work has slowed temporarily, plus the work had become more detail-oriented and therefore, less dramatic! (Though there's lots of drama in a new gigantic window!)
The stairs are now in, as is the gas space heater/fireplace, and the window facing the house. There's an identical window going in the east gable side of the barn, so no doubt there'll be plenty of natural light!
Of less drama is the fact the crew filled the garbage bin even past its brim with construction debris. Unfortunately, I was hoping there would have been enough room to fit all the wood waste for the chicken coop, so at the moment we're still stuck with this stuff.
Soon I expect the door entrance from outside and frm the first floor of the barn to be roughed in (I'm installing teh doors myself); the second window to be installed; the gaps around the perimeter of the barn to be filled with pressure-treated lumber; snow guards to be installed on the roof.
