All Work And No Play

The couple did not want to get lost in their huge and tiring work. So, with the work, they would often make plans with their friends. The couple would hang out with their friends very often. They had decided not to let the project get the best of them. Spending time with friends helped them to do away with stress. 

All On The Floor

Once they got their hands on the electricity, they aimed at the floorboards of the house. They noticed that many of the floorboards were rotten. Leaving them the way they were could lead to hazardous accidents. Claire took the responsibility of removing the floorboards. She picked a sledgehammer and struck the floorboards with all her force.    

Checking Scaffolding

They also had to check the scaffolding that was in a bad condition too. One thing that they very much liked about the building was its bay window on the top floor. However, they soon learned that the exterior of the window was infested with cracks and holes. They thought its reason to be the collapsing of the house into the ground. However, it did not take them long to realize that the reason was something else. They were at their wit’s end when they saw that the roof timbers were shoving the window out of its spot.

Going Back To Basics

They learned many valuable lessons that we tend to ignore in busy and bustling city life. They realized that sometimes one should get back to the fundamentals. They had no facilities of a washing machine or other electronic equipment as they were putting up in a caravan. They had to figure out something on their own. 

Natural

They decided to go completely natural. Claire had a perfect idea about washing her gloves. She did not want to go to the local town to use the laundromat as that was quite far instead the woman headed to a stream and washed her gloves in that. Thereafter, she hung her gloves up between a couple of trees.   

Making The Most Of Sunshine

Staying in caravan comes with its own share of hardships but that doesn’t mean it is not fun. No doubt, the caravan did not give comfort like home but it was quite an experience for them. Summer had finally come and Claire and Cal were intended to enjoy it fully. So, instead of taking help from their neighbors they planned on making their own makeshift kitchen.
