9/15 - Here are a few pictures of our latest accomplishments.
We are doing lots of design work on the main house and hope to pour the foundation next month. In the mean time, we are trying to finish up on the siding for the little house. It’s been taking forever ’cause it is usually just one person at a time working on it. But, if we can get a team of three, it goes really fast. So, I have put together a “work/party day” for Toby’s birthday. What he really wants the most is to have some of these projects done. So, tomorrow we are going to try to finish up some of the siding, winterize the house, and cut up more wood for the cord wood walls in the main house.

9/17 - Wahoo!! A bunch of people showed up to Toby’s “workin’ birthday”, so they decided to throw up a porch in an afternoon! It looks great and makes this place feel so much more like a ‘home’. We spent this morning relaxing on the porch and even hung up the hammock.

We hit the jackpot at the Habitat for Humanity Home Store yesterday. I have put it on my list to go by there and check as often as possible because they get in so many good home building supplies. Well, yesterday we took home 15 medium to large windows!! Brand new and low-E!! So, that brings our window total up to ~20. All for ~$150!! Yahoo! That should be enough to outfit the whole house!
