April in Ontario

| |

Not a lot of work got done today, lotsa driving around in fairly crappy weather. Over the course of twleve hours about 8-12 inches of snow fell around southern Ontario. Our driveway has 12" of snow on it, and it hasn't been plowed. I managed to get in with the truck, but it wasn't fun. So the roofing guys weren't there, the plumber couldn't get in, and Joanne is stuck in Toronto, since all Go trains were cancelled this afternoon. The weather people are calling for more of the same tonight.

Dad and I went into Peterborough to pick up our Wiremold conduit and glass for the doors. We got the conduit but the glass place was closed, probably due to the weather. So, as has become the norm for this project, we've pretty much lost a week. Good news though, we were hoping to do the outside window trim in Western Red Cedar, because it would match the doors, and because it contrasts with the grey exterior stucco so nicely. Turns out that the quantity we need will only cost about $300. For the interior window trim we're going to use either our own oak or maple.

Dad's got the cedar up on the outside face of the south end of the bathroom, we'll stain that tomorrow. He also did a test of laying the fibreglass over the stained cedar. It sticks fine, so after we finish staining the shower wall we can apply fibreglass.
