I'm finally getting to work on the inside of the building. Now that it's cold and dark outside seems like good timing. First off I wanted to set up some interior ambient light to fill the room. I hate canned lighting and I didn't want to set up those cheap looking string lights. I was also thinking that LED lighting is almost ready for prime time. I've been using the flashlights for years, so I was happy to give it a try.
The other thing I've read about is that they are dimmable, wether this is true or not seemed questionable, but after putting them up, the dimmer did work great. Much like Fluorescent lighting, it can only dim to a certain point and then goes dead. Unlike the CFLs though, the lite doesn't flicker beforehand. Here's a picture of the install, lights up the room quite nicely, even when dimmed to half strength. Unfortunately, the image doesn't quite show it off as well as it could.

More Trim Work and FInally the Deck
Finally got the deck done. Well mostly, the decking is in, need to get the last of the trim and the railing up. Hopefully finish with the exterior next time. Took two full days, and by full I mean into the dark. Of course it get's dark at 5 now, so that's not saying much. The pitcures don't look so good as they were all with a flash right before I left. More When I get back up there.
