When I demoed the broken down sauna that was in the same corner where I’m now building the wine cellar, I found the disgusting remains of a mouse/chipmunk/squirrel nest in the ceiling insulation. ? So today I rodent-proofed #ProjectWineCellar. ???️
✅ First layer of ceiling insulation in place
⬜️ Front and side vapor barrier (in progress)
#ProjectWineCellar
Framing complete. Tomorrow I rough in the rest of the electrical, and hopefully finish the vapor barrier. #ProjectWineCellar
Three walls framed, one to go. But that will have to be another weekend. #ProjectWineCellar
So that was our trip. Right now I’m sitting on a plane awaiting take-off, so next stop MSP, then IND, then home!
The Mellon Meyer tasting was shorter than expected, so we headed to HiFi Wine Bar for a tasting from Martin Woods (who owns the bar). The wines were nice, but the bartender was especially good—friendly and knowledgeable. https://www.martinwoodswinery.com (McMinnville, OR)
