Planning to add some steps and a small seat around Amy & Derek's new hot tub. Seen here after final installation. The plan is to move it to a new slab with an equipment enclosure next summer.
First, I conned Amy and Derek into spending all of Sunday emptying out the garage then repacking it and leaving me some room to work. Here is the mini shop, where I can stay warm and dry.
Just a few hours earlier this space was solid boxes and whatever. The piece of plywood is a full scale plan view drawing of the hot tub with the steps and support framing. It is a real pain figuring out what amounts to a circular staircase but it should look good when done.
Ran up to Evergreen for breakfast with Jim Browne, his daughter Amiee and friend Marcella.
Looks like snow here soon, weather back in Soldotna sounds perfect, -20.
More soon as I have something to show for my efforts.
Stay warm.
