    I got the fridge installed along with a bottle opener :) Put a small carpet runner in front of the cabinets and did some re arranging of the wall storage so make it so you were less likely to bang your head.

    It is going well.. Getting more done than I thought I would seeing as it is winter up here. But thanks to Al Gore (aka global warming) it has been nicer up here than usual so I have been able to get more done.

    thanks tor the kudos. It is really fun working on it. Come spring I plan on doing some painting and replacing all the cab seals. If I get the funds I want to do some tire upgrades. Also on the list to do is install a ham radio or two.
