The house project is on hold while some infrastructure is setup at my parent’s farm. To that end, I’m applying my skills to various projects over there. This is one of them, a mobile pen for rabbits, where they can graze without escaping or tearing up the lawn/pasture, and with a sheltered area for nesting.

Before any of the ambitious plans for the second floor can begin, I have to finish making various spaces livable. A seemingly simple part of this process was unpacking my kitchen boxes, but has become a little involved.
Our most ambitious plans at this point are for the second floor. Here are a bunch of photos of it as it is now.
Possible wild goose chase today. While comparing and evalutating options for the second floor, we discovered that almost all the closet door knobs are missing.
Dad and I went over this morning to reassemble the “trap” on the bathroom sink, and rewire the electric circuit that runs under the kitchen sink.
The wiring running into the outlet under the kitchen sink, for the dishwasher, was nearly bare on the neutral wire. We even saw a place where the hot had tried to weld to the ground. Awesome. At least the outlet was a GFI.
We bought spools of romex wire, and ran a new outlet in the basement, along the line for that circuit, which is pictured above, then ran new wire to the outlet under the sink. I got to wire up the basement outlet, though I had the basics already.
We also brainstormed the second floor and have a rough plan, I hope to have photos and a description of that soon.
