Finished floor!

Saturday, April 23

With the back-right-corner sheet of plywood installed, I now officially have an extra 120 square feet of space in the house.

This photo shows the beads of glue I applied to the joists prior to attaching the plywood.

Anne photographed me showing off my new Skil drill-driver after I screwed down the last piece of plywood Saturday morning. She then ventured onto the floor for the first time.

My next steps will be to remove the drywall above the window, remove the insulation, and punch some holes through the wall to the outside to roughly mark where the new window will go.  Then I will build a scaffold outside and start tearing off stucco.
