The French doors are in…..
and the siding is going on……
October 24, exterior almost finished. Soil not yet spread around the house.
October 26, the exterior is complete. View from road

all on and the deck is complete. Now all
the work is inside, and just in time as daytime highs have been in the 40s with
lows in the upper 20s and low 30s. Snow
is forecast for tonight (Halloween) with temperatures dropping to about
17. BRRRR!
View from due south.
Jim’s dozer work spread topsoil around the house. Next spring, after letting winter’s frosts do
their work, we will till the soil and plant it.
View from north east across septic field. The deer have been using the area where the photographer
is standing as a hiding spot….the grass is all trampled down with trails
leading in and out.

depth and not much rain either.
View from road.
