Festus, would love to hear the plan etc, why not make a thread about it? "Festus heads west" or something...those that want to can follow things, and others can skip over it. Good spot to post trip pictures etc too!!

The Hagens need Festus to get their burnt out house finished before Festus can go west or when Festus gets back there won't be no more Misses Hagen!

I wouldn't like that, a good woman is hard to find!

At this point in time it ain't looking good for my pops B-day!
Got about 100 sq of siding left to do and 2500 sqft of hardwood to do, then we can get the insurance $$ and be all set!

Though I like the tittle ... Might use it when the time comes!

-Enjoy

That's easy stuff!

Try working on a roof all day or pouring concrete and laying cinder block!


I do have to admit though the cement board siding I'm putting up right now takes alot of time when you have to pre-drill everything


Anyways good luck with that I always love to see people putting down hardwood flooring....carpet is for the birds!

Never been there, almost, we though about it and decided Vinyl is final ... Thats what was on here when it burnt, not that it matters, it's 3 times the house now.

Bout 904 sqft of that to do as well, and about 350 sqft of tile... Carpet and tile are a bit further down the road!

Ok, Enough hijack!
Mods delete all this garbage about Festus's house and trip west ... At least get it out of this thread.

I dislike hijacks (cluttered threads), however I'll be the first to admit I am one of the worst offenders!

-Enjoy

thanks guys.
oh,i just decided to leave them factory mirrors on until the day i take it into the paint shop.
that way i dont have to worry about water damage.
i know it looks funny lol.but im not risking trying to cover the hole under them when i take 'em off and have water get down in my door.
couple fenders,etc. and paint will be sometime this summer/fall anyway.
next on the list though: underbody toolboxes. (im sick of loading tools and gear on top of wood/chips/brush,so i can dump,and put all the gear back on the bed again.)
