    Default Weekend getaway remodel

    Hey everyone. I just bought a fixer upper on the hood canal for a wekend get away and thought this would be a great place for information. I have already used this site for framing questions and it was extremely helpful. I look forward to proffessional comments on my "Do It Yourself" requests for help.

    Glad to trade building secrets for vacation time on the canal . . .

    Where is the Hood canal? And before someone says "near Port Ludlow", where is Port Ludlow?

    That and the Narrows and the I-90 Bridge between Seattle and Mercer Island ! Seattle can build airplanes but their bridges really suck...All three are below:

    Some of the deepest in the world, that's why the Navy has quite a few known and more unknown/uncounted nuclear subs based there in Bangor. Worked there in the early eighties for a sub-contractor doing concrete work. The Super for the base said at that time there is more underground that isn't visible than what people see above....Kinda like NORAD-West. Between Fort Lewis/McChord and Bangor, Washington State is a LARGE target.
