5 more sleeps to go!
My Bobcat snow blade hasn`t going to see a lot of use, this picture is from last yr.
All of our families are either living here or coming in so we won`t be doing any traveling, how about you Sherm?
Merry Christmas and all the best to you and your family in 2015 JWC.

Rain this time of year is gross Gerry. We've been having heavy fog and freezing rain.

We're not traveling much either Mo. Brother in law and family are down this weekend, my sisters are coming out on the 24th from the far east. They're here until the 31st.

Finally got the addition ceiling insulated and the chimney 3/4 of the way installed. Canadian Tire had a 60000 BTU propane heater on sale for $100 so I picked it up. In 10 minutes I was sweating in the addition. I will use that heater in my little garage as well once I insulate and finish it. Today I will get the cement board on behind the stove and strike the first match.

Have an awesome Sunday everyone. I think I'm going a chicken on the charcoal grill today.

I'd like to see pics of that bench Gerry. The little garage I have here is going to get an overhaul into a workshop once my focus is off the addition. It is in desperate need of a workbench, shelving, and about 2' more in ceiling height. I'm planning on raising it up and pouring a new floor in there.

What is your ceiling height in your new garage Gerry?

If you pour a new floor put in floor heating, I love mine

I like in floor heating, but I don't have natural gas on the farm here, and I don't want to deal with the expense of electric or propane. I'll have a wood stove for my primary heat. That being said, I should plumb for the in-floor, just in case down the road I do decide to install a boiler. The pipe is cheap. Labor is 0.

Those are nice cabinets.

Happy Sunday morning all. I spent Friday afternoon and yesterday in bed with the flu. Just dropped Jordan off at work. Now I have to hit the mall for the last time this year. Gerry and Sherm. We need some pic's of the building projects. Sherm. My neighbor has an electric boiler for his in floor heat, and says it's not terrible money. once the pad is warm and radiates, it doesn't cycle that often. Have a great pre Christmas week Guy's.

We've had heavy fog with this warmer than usual weather.
It`s nice that some of your family are coming here Sherm, Christmas is a great time for families to spend together.
I used to have a propane heater at one time and I found that it produced a lot of humidity but it did warm up my shop in a hurry.
I`d love to have a wood stove for heat but never got around to it, I have a lot of firewood from trimming my trees.
Sorry to hear you have the flu Grant, I've been lucky so far. Where does Jordan work? My grandson works at a Coop gas bar while finishing his schooling.
How far away are you from Home Depot John?
