When you need a place to “put everything together”, build it!
When the studio is completed, everything will be easier to find. Then we can all make ready for the next epic adventure! As for now, it’s all “lost in a box somewhere”.
The moment we all (I) have been anticipating has finally arrived! Starting tomorrow (or last month or year, depending on when you're reading this), I (Skinny) will begin working on the studio. Expect photo updates when there is something to update! Make sure to check in regularly to ensure I stay on track to complete this project!
It is amazing how fast time goes by. In a blink of an eye, it has been 25 years since I wanted to get this project going. Even though it’s been since early 2020 (remember that awful year?) since I started the studio build and now it has to be totally re-done. This shall be the year for completing projects! Life goes by fast, and if you let it, it (you) will pass before you can fully enjoy living! Don’t let dreams escape without at the least trying to accomplish them. Life isn’t all about the money… BUT, if you don’t have it, life seems to be a lot harder to get through.
With the progression of the studio build, I also hope to finish the house siding and roof. As always, I’ll update when I can!
It has looked this way since 2020. 6/21/24 Day 1.
I think it's time for an upgrade! Let the clean-up commence!
This has almost become a neighborhood icon, or maybe eyesore...
6/24/24 Day 4 Been cuttin' trees for 2 days. 92 degrees and high humidity.
5, 6 pickin' up sticks. I didn't get in any rush.
And a lot of rakin'. My back's achin'! When the dust settled, you can tell something got done!
Day 7, Another gorgeous summer day to be outside! A month has passed since this project was started.
After several setbacks on day 6, the main frame is up on day 7. Money, time, and energy are hard to come by at the same time.
Working solo takes time and creativity to hold a board on both ends! Day 5- 7 mid 80's 7/21/24.
Good progress, looking forward to warmer weather!
Day 12 Late on update, now it's COLD!!!
Adding 2nd story and main level floor soon.
Day 14 with slow progress
Coming out of winter
With nicer weather, this should go up quickly!
Day 24, days are figured as a 9-hour workday.
5/20/25 Spring is here, the leaves and weeds are back. Welcome warmer weather!
The roof is not yet complete, I was playing "beat the rain" and did what I had to in order to get it all covered.
That odd looking front will have a window and the business name on it. 11/8/25
Day39 Sidings next! Been raining and hot, then it turned into fall overnight. Mid 60's with some wind.
The porch turned out nicer than I had pictured in my head. I better hurry, snow's coming way to soon!
