Remodeling at the Rockwood

Ok, time to resurrect this blog. I'm back from my vacation and there is all sorts of work to be done. If anyone still checks this site I will be surprised, but I'll blog right along.

All the major decisions have been made, now it is detail time. My next set of details revolve around the place where our reception will be held, the massive barn at the Rockwood Manor. So this week in order to start things up right Erin and I went to check the place out and do a little bit of work. Here are some photos:

Me, after knocking down a wall that will be the restrooms for the reception area.

How dusty was the barn as we were cleaning you ask? Now you know why we were wearing dust masks...

So there it was a Saturday of working at the Rockwood. Future plans include working on the bathroom and continuing to set-up the barn. There is a LOT of work to be done and I'm looking forward to it. Work to be done in the barn that is on my list of things to do:

- Ventilation (Barns get hot in the middle of the summer)
- Audio
- Lighting
- Logistics (tables, buffet lines, DJ & Square dancing set-up)
- Power needs

Also on my list: Rain Plans for the ceremony, rehearsal dinner and reception. Erin has a Spring break coming up in a week and is currently tasked with all things flowers and decoration. I have very little skill in this area and I'm excited to see how everything (esp. the barn) will look when she gets done with it.

Thanks for the update - I was begining to wonder if Erin had come to her senses and called the whole thing off :)
