Project the Second

After a bad moth experience in the old condo, Lucky and Corypheus blithely threw themselves into lining the main bedroom closets with cedar. Lucky had to pry out the cemented-in shelves with a crowbar, resulting in unsightly and unstable holes down to the brick, which he decided to plaster over.

At this juncture, I’m going to point out that he has never plastered anything before.

But he jumped into it, mixing the cement on the capacious patio

I hope you enjoyed the time-lapse feature of this entry, as this project actually took 5 weeks from start to finish (July 12-August 22).
