As of March 3rd the art studio is nearing completion.  Rough cut cedar siding and installing the sub flooring still remain to be completed.  The rest of the interior work will be completed by Corinne's family & friends.

 

It is truly amazing what a bunch of hardworking people can do even if they have never done something like this before.  We have all stood back at one time or another and said wow look what we did.

 

We have been picking one weekend day for just about every weekend starting some time before Christmas.  There has been a few weeks where we could not show up.  Our largest group of workers was about 10 while the past few work days we have had about 4 people working.
