In preparation for doing some serious work in the basement this winter, it's time to grade the areas outside the house. Not that the basement is taking in a lot of water, just a trickle here and there. I still haven't finished sealing the cracks (air gaps) inside, of even finished power washing the walls yet, not to mention haven't painted the walls yet. My mind keeps telling me, that I'm further along in the basement than I really am. This is a good thing though, cause my brain is getting me excited and as such, causing me to want to work on it. Sadly, I fear reality will set in, when I actually go down there to start working. For now though, I'll take the excited feeling and feeling like I can make progress. I need this done, anything that helps me along on the process is a good thing, even if it is a false sense of accomplishment.

After viewing the back of the shed for several days, I decided it was time to move on and do the back side of the shed. This is starting to look fairly nice, best thing is the painted sides aren't really visible from the road, so passerby's don't even know I'm doing anything (not that they would care anyway). This is getting me excited to move forward and finish it. I do like to take my time though and enjoy each little step, so it's time to sit back and enjoy the work that's already done.

All the things (caught on camera at least) I did to the yard in 2016, all wrapped up into a 5 minute video. The 2017 recap will contain much more video, but I've already adjusted many things in my process to make that video take way less time to complete. Probably the most time consuming video I've done to date, especially since I really wanted to make sure it was under 5 minutes.

Time for a quick sanding of the shed. Not trying for perfection here, just smoothing out the Elmer's Probond Stainable Wood Fill.

Today, I decided to go outside with great hopes of cleaning up the backyard a bit before spring. This didn't go as well as I had anticipated. What I found instead was a very dull saw blade, soaked wood, and a day filled with headaches. Decided to let the wood dry out some before trying it again, of course I'll have to get a new saw blade at some point to.

Today I decided to remove the rest of the back porch. It does look a lot better now.

Today, I decided to remove the remaining posts from the old porch. 1 broke off, the other came out nice and easy.

At least I got it cut down a ways, stump is just way too solid for my dull axe (hatchet maybe?) to get through.
