Put a second coat of paint on the entrance. LOts more here than meets the eye. This door was under a porch last week...

Started finishing out. Mudding the drywall and painting the ceiling in Bamboo Ben approved BLACK. Yes, flat black... The back wall will be painted once we finish with the mud.

The beams a re brown now, but will be covered in carved panels eventually.

Then we started putting down the other side of the floor. This is will be permanent and this is where the bar will be.

You can just see a lip on the edge here so we can put some rope light under the step up so peopel don't trip.

Man, this was a lot of work! If you have ever mudded drywall, you know it's just a pain. The corners in the room were a mess since there was aluminum siding under there! Big nasty gaps to fill and fix. The corner at the ceiling too. Stuff you don't see, but is a lot of work.

We also got Jatoba flooring for the bar this weekend, but we'll have to get a bit further along before we put it in. We don't want to ruin it in the construction.
