I had the opportunity to see, hear and feel one of my favorite bands, Balkan Beat Box played at the Arcata Theater Lounge. Excellent energy and great sound, a good way to recharge the body and soul. It makes one realize the importance of music and how it brings so many different kinds of people together in an almost intimate way. The BBB had of strong message of PEACE.
Back home and trying to wrap up so many loose ends. Made good progress in the studio! Baseboards for the bathroom were made from the redwood 2x4 stash that came from Crescent City. I ripped them in half and ended up with five eights by three and a half inch boards with rough sawn texture. I made some for the half bath in the house too.
From the rotting 1x fir that the nice folks at the College of the Redwoods gave me I built the cabinet (with shelves) over the breaker panel in the studio and also used that wood to fill in between the loft joists. It now looks finished but also old because of the rough texture of the wood. I still need to hang the doors to the cabinet.
The first draft design for the Windy Nip kitchen are drawn. The studio was warm because of a firing Becky did in the kiln so I took advantage of the heat. It has been cold at nights, the low temperatures have averaged around the high thirties to low forties. Once the water pipes froze. The high temps have been in the high fifties to low sixties. It will be another beautiful blue sky day today no doubt. Sitting close by the wood stove with a hot cup of Joe typing this entry makes me feel thankful for all that I have and that reminds me off all the things I want to do before Thanksgiving. CIAU!
