Thanksgiving and Some Work on the Basement

Busy times around the Hudge. First off, I did a bunch of work in the basement. It began with some floor repair, and shortly after Adam came and helped frame up some wall action. Then, we had 18 people over for Thanksgiving. Pretty productive week, overall!
