Thanks Troy. Ran some speaker wire today and need to start putting in the sound deadening insulation tomorrow.

Still raining down there Mike? Seems like there has been a lot since you got there.

Good idea Jay. Need your bedroom sound proof or close to it for when you have guests over. Cut down on the noise from your room so the guests can sleep!

Raining on and off for the last 8 days, and next 5 it looks like.

But keeping it cooler, so that's good.

Evening everyone!

Good evening fellas

Looking really good Jay!
I hope they do a good job compacting the soil before they poured concrete. I have some areas in my driveway and rear stoop that are sagging. The rear stoop has dropped around 4" from where it was originally poured.
Insulation in the interior walls is a really good thing to do. Every interior wall as well as exterior are insulated - not just for better control of heat but sound. Sometimes I think I need to add some more in the bathrooms to squelch some of the melodious reverberations!

Good evening, gentleman. How has everyone's Saturday been? I just got home from work. These 12 hour shifts are kinda killing me but I'm glad I get home when the sun is still partially out instead of in the dead of night.

Looks ok good. Welcome back to the headaches of home ownership

What are they doing for your hands?
