Yesterday I had the partition wall between the kitchen and bathroom mocked up, and today a built the wall. One of the challenges with this project is that nothing is square, and nothing is level. That's why this picture is so funny to me. I screwed a brace into the frame just to hold things steady while I screwed the studs to the sill. I wasn't trying to make it level, it just ended up that way. And I didn't set the level on to the brace to check for level, but just happened to set it there after using it as a straight edge. So if you stood back a few feet and looked at the brace, it would look crooked as hell because the trailer sits about 3 1/2 inches lower on one side than the other. But it was perfectly level with the world......
This is the back side of the completed partition wall where the tub will sit.
This is the front of the wall, where the range and cabinets will fit.
I also finished covering the front wall in what will become our bedroom. This has turned out to be a pretty productive use of vacation time, but tomorrow I'll take the day off and pick some blueberries and peaches before swimming in the San Marcos river!
