Another remodeling project I plan on doing this fall is a remodel of the master closet at the main house. We’re blessed with a very large master closet (350 square feet or so), but it could be a lot better. I plan on installing floor to ceiling wardrobe style shelves and clothing racks, along with … Continue reading Master Closet Remodel
It’s been an awesome summer of boating at the lake house on Lake Wisconsin, and while it’s not over yet, I thought it would be fun to post some pictures recapping the summer. Lots of party coves, tiki bars, and sun! Continue reading Summer Boating
