Good morning!!!!

[birddog0304]

27 headed up to mid 50's. Should get rid of the rest of 3 inches of snow we had on Thursday. Couple of new calves during this latest snow. Longest time without power was 6 days, Jan 2000. Snow and ice in NC, close to where creekbend lives. We had a 3 wk old baby and not a generator to be had thanks to Y2K, just plenty of firewood ( thank GOD ).

18 degrees F this morning and heading up into the high thirties with a chance of light snow….Just a lazy Saturday with little or nothing pressing. Football tomorrow so another nice weekend.

Good morning all, TBN keeps kicking me off the site after being logged in for a minute or two, showing ads in the area where threads are supposed to go and asking me to register to remove the ads. It's 35 degrees now but forecast calls for a cold spell during the next several days. About being without power, I now have a generator and when I added the addition I had the mechanical contractor install a corner fireplace in the family room that puts out a lot of heat, a REAL working gas fireplace. So far have never needed it for emergency heat but at least it's there.

Good Morning All.

[txdon]

Good morning! 43˚now up to to 64˚ later, no clouds, it's going to be a nice sunny day.

Texas Room?

There is too much sun in Texas so it should not be a sunroom unless it is on the north side or shaded by trees or only used in the winter.

I would describe a Texas Room as a large game room with the interior of old barn wood and used roof tin. Various dead animal would be hanging on the walls - goats, snakes, armadillos, rabbits (the ones with horns) and a white tailed deer. The bar is wooded and looks like a saloon out of a western movie, there is a pool table, a old pinball machine, an antique slot machine, and tables for card games. The light is a wagon wheel chandelier. Somewhere in the mix there is a set of longhorns, a branding iron and pictures of hills/deserts/cactus.

Ron you are confusing people. You need to change your location during the winter.

Don,

That is pretty tempting... I had/have a man cave in my big house in town, now my tenants play pool on my table...

I've always thought when I build one, I'd make it look like a classic Irish Pub... But I might like a Texas Room just as much...

A few more things - a large star, a Texas flag, old tractor seat bar stools, and old spurs hanging on the wall. A saddle bar stool thrown in the bunch of tractor bar stools will give you extra credit.

I thought Ron was talkin' about a room full of snowbirds discussing how bad the weather was back home.

 

[Mousefield]

Good looking day, some sun and a high 5c/43f.
Going to be bad today and watch some NHL hockey.

 

[sodamo]

A brisk 61F this AM, also our low for the night, a bit of wind adding a "chill". Funny to see the Honolulu weather and news people talk about our cold snap LOL

 

[sodamo]

Once sealed in I assume you will demo the existing doors and move them forward. Right?
Then you will leave the wall due to load bearing reasons?

Looking great!
David

The garage door will move forward. Debating whether to do myself (no electric closer) or hire done). As for the people door, I have another exactly like it I never installed so I'll install the spare frame and move the door with the hardware. Existing wall will remain, while the wall itself might be considered removable, there are posts and beams inside that support the whole roof. The garage itself is made from a SIP called ProTec.

HAHHHH !!!! This thread is now only a dozen posts from passing that stupid inane thread, whose name, out of courtesy, will now no longer be mentioned by me. Up to 39 here right now, most of the snow has melted. Weird (just like the crazy cat guy) :laughing:
