Began painting last night using the roll-on method. Second coat just finished this morning. Bavarian creme is a nice change from solid white and should complement the aqua once I paint the bottom. Hope to do a third coat in the afternoon if this coat dries.

Began running new wires to the new exterior lights after work. Got dark so I used a headlamp to work. Tested the two front beehives with a battery charger and the lit up beautifully. Wiring is super simple. I can't believe how fast it is going. After that I run the interior wiring and start putting up birch.

New water fill came in. The old one was rough but I liked the style better.

Was that water fill a "new old-stock" one that someone had? It looks pretty good but for the differing style.

Even tho it's a different shape, cudos for the original Bargman part. They are a bit difficult to find, and I can about imagine what kind of price you paid for that. The new chrome finish is going to be a really nice touch and worth the finding...

I was outbid on a filler and the seller offered to sell me another he had for $55 plus shipping, which is fair. The filler is flawless

Bo and Susan, you give me a reason to move forward. Everyone else thinks I'm nuts.

This is turning out just gorgeous! And no, you are not nuts. Our neighbors thought we had lost our minds when we were working on Hamlet, and now they are just in awe. And all the naysayers around you will be, too.

Camper's first Christmas. Can't wait until dusk. Retro wall covers. Excuse the sideways shot. These will be in the tall cabinet where the microwave will be hiding
