Somethin’ Big: a house log

Sherry and I are giving each other a slightly early Christmas present in the form of a major home improvement undertaking. It is in fact something we have been dreaming about for a while, but we are not going to reveal what it is quite yet (it is still in progress) so instead, we thought we’d provide a series of daily clues leading up to next week when we will drop the big reveal bomb and share all the yummy before and after pics.

Today’s hint is the photo below. No, we did not get a Christmas bush, we in fact had to put away our tree a whole week before Christmas Day (and could not resist snapping this picture during the disassembly). It is simply one of the many things we had to do to get the house ready for its presto-change-o.

Any guesses so far? Stay tuned for tomorrow’s hint, which simply might shed another sliver of light on our little surprise project. Oh the possibilities…
