Welcome Home!

Are you sitting down?

Are you ready for something amazing?

Remember this?




Well, after some time away it came home today. Here it comes:


Ta Daaaa!


We just can't get over how beautiful it is.




In other news, Dan and Garrett poured the footings for the porches today. There are three for the main entry and four for the back porch. Each sonotube is 12 inches in diameter and 40 inches deep, and holds about 5 bags of concrete mix.


I met with John S. at the farm so he could take measurements of the kitchen. Sally and I went over the electrical system in the old house so she could prepare a bid for us. She's simply wonderful and I look forward to having her do our electrical work.

Then I collected some (extremely heavy!) concrete blocks from the yard to use in the hay shed. I spent the afternoon sanding the attic, and then Keith and I finally ripped the plywood into one-inch strips to use for spacers on the rafters. Later we'll attach the bead board ceiling to the spacers.
