Every project get into seems to open new cans of worms.

My young neighbor came over a few days ago and we ripped out the rest of the old redwood decking in the old hot tub room. And of course a lot of talking about how to proceed since absolutely nothing about this job has any correlation to normal or accepted construction methods.
So we decided that he's coming back Monday with his haz-mat gear to pull out the insulation under the adjoining room, that the pack rats had pulled down and chewed to heck. This is about the only chance to deal with it because right now there is approximately a 16' long by 2' high gap under the wall between the two rooms.
But after that I'm probably going to finish most of the job myself since he is just not available that much. I built houses and log cabins 30 to 40 years ago but it's a lot more difficult for me to do anything now. I suppose if I can get one or two floor joists installed in a day that I will be doing okay. I hope to have him back in a month or so to help me lay the plywood.
