In Between The Rain Storms...

Painted a sealant onto the sub-floor.

What's that you ask?  The framework for 3 giant windows!  The plan here is to block the wind that is always cutting across the deck.  We'll still have a great view without all of the wind.

This sheeting is the beginning of a new tile flooring system.  The plan here is to make sure we NEVER have to do this again.

The Door to Hell

Darvaza, Turkmenistan - While drilling in 1971, geologists tapped into a cavern filled with natural gas. The ground beneath the drilling rig collapsed, leaving a large hole with a diameter of about 70 metres.

To avoid poisonous gas discharge, it was decided to be burned off. Geologists had hoped the fire would use all the fuel in a matter of days, but the gas still burns 40 years later. Locals have dubbed the cavern "The Door to Hell."
