Here is a view the same as below with all of the drywall up as well as some of the tape and mud in place. As you can see we are making some progress. We also have replaced the original floor with a new subfloor. Actually it is old plywood from my work. IT is 20 years old and 3/4 in. Dry as can be and was perfectly flat. The old pine boards that made up the original floor were in such bad shape. There were places that had holes clean through. Some time back someone covered these with sheet metal. It is nice not to have fears of falling through those places now.
