Cabinets

We've completed the laundry room and kitchen cabinets!

(we're kind of going in backwards order)

Well

The well digging has been a LONG process.  And a messy one...

We mud drilled so we could have an all steel well, so if we need to go deeper in the future we can.

They drilled through a heck of a lot of cobble, and a heck of a lot of clay.

Finally found an aquifer, hallelujah.

Our well is 155' deep.

Well drilling has been so stressful.  You pay by the foot... (about $70/foot)

Roughed In

Everything roughed in!

Gibson loves it up there

Eaves and Roof

Getting the roof sheating

Eaves

Trimming off the eaves to make a nice straight line for the trim to go against.

Lookouts

Today Scott put "lookouts" on, and finished with some bracing.

Trusses

We spent my birthday hefting trusses on top of the walls.  It was an exciting day!

 

And, to top off the day, Scott gave me my very own woman's toolbelt!

Yet more Framing

Started the day off with some bucket rides...

Later in the day after some sheating!

Framing

More framing - adding the top plate!
