I have to admit that the walls in our shower up at the river are most definitely unique, but that doesn't mean we have to keep them that way. So, bye-bye bathroom. Bye-bye to the fiberglass tub that has a crack in it and has a "squishy" feeling underneath when you're in it(probably because the floor under it is rotted away! Yikes!). Bye-bye to the ugly, itty bitty commode. Bye-bye to the tiniest cabinet and sink I've ever seen and the hot water side of the faucet that doesn't work.The floor will require new plywood and more support underneath to make certain everything is level, secure and will bear the weight of the new shower. Everything has been chosen at our favorite home improvement store and sits in the living room waiting to be installed. Joel and I are anxious to get up there in a week and put down the flooring, install the toilet and cabinet. Then it'll be time to hook up the sink plumbing and build the base for the shower. The following weekend we can start putting tile in the shower and we'll be in the home stretch.
Will I miss the old bathroom? Not on your life! But I will remember the roofing material shower walls with some fondness. You've got to admit that was a pretty creative use of materials.
