Bonus Room Bar Project

Over Christmas break this year, it was decided that we would build a bar in the cabin bonus room. We had been discussing the location and style for the last couple years, and finally, with the CT and FL Hewitt's together at last, the decision was made. Construction was to start immediately - Chad had a full week to work on it over the New Year Holiday. After Eric and Jennie and family left for Rochester, and Skip and Linda left on Saturday, Nathan and Chad went to Menard's to buy the lumber and "dorm fridge". They had a wonderful trip home in the van with the "door ajar" alarm beeping the whole way.

Nathan's been a huge help in the construction - he's using the radial arm saw, power nailer, jig saw and various other tools. No injuries so far!
