    while im at it, i grouted the subway tile in the red bath this afternoon. im not real pleased with my efforts. for one, my grout was too dry and the first section of my wall looks kinda rough. i wet my grout down and it spread alot better after that, a whole lot better. plus, i might have waited a little too long to sponge my first wall down. doing subway tile can be a bitch, especially when you're setting 3"x6" individual tiles over a large square footage. in my case, 50 sq. ft. grouting is just as tough, tedious, cuss-worthy. i'll let it set for a few weeks before sealing and we'll take it from there. not all projects turn out as planned. cold beer will fill the void.

    I've not posted much in here, but I've been keeping an eye on your progress Tank.


    :cheer:

    Very Very nice. I like your wife's colors, and I like that you listened to her, nice going.

    Your house is beautiful, I love the hardwoods and the tile work. Make sure your daughter and wife don't wear heels while they're pissed off in there. :biggrin:

    next up..........

    i'll be building a completely new pool deck (30' X 12'), after tearing down the old one sometime this late fall/early winter. this one will have a tin roof that covers the entire structure. preliminary costs of materials alone are around $1500. labor is on me. imma save some of the old deck for a whip ass work bench that will go in the basement. i'll also be building a 14' X 14' deck off the back of the house with steps off each end. i have about an acre of yard/woods out behind the house and its a good place to chill. that one wont cost as much tho. some privacy fencing and minor landscaping is also needed but i'll be damned if im gonna plant anything right now.
