We have walls!

It has been a few days since my last post. It is not that there has not been progress on the house, because there certainly has been wonderful progress. The walls are all framed. The shop floor has been poured. The roof trusses are due for delivery tomorrow.

The reason I have not posted sooner is that there is not much that will show up in a picture. Now, this is not a picture blog, per se, but pictures are much more interesting than my writing, and they tell the story much better.

So, with that being said, here are a couple of new pictures.

Here I am in front of the opening to the RV garage/shop.


And here is a shot of the shop floor. Duane had
the floor poured now, because the concrete truck
could back right in and pour. Once the header for the
garage door is in place, a pumper would have been
required. Duane looks out for our pennies!


Here is a photo of a home built with our plan. It doesn't
have the RV garage, but otherwise, it looks pretty much
as we expect our new home to look. We haven't decided on
exterior paint colors yet, so we took this photo to upload
to a simulator. That will allow us to recolor the house and
try some colors without purchasing the paint and then
being disappointed.
