Giant Leap to the Near-Present

I could tell you stories leading up to our current adventure 'til the cows came home. What I need to do is just get into it. I'm looking for scanned copies of our house plan (& site plan), so those will come after the fact....

We are putting the house in the north-west corner - right where the junky trailer & a small copse of trees are. The following took place in June 2007 - so we are relatively current... (remember, you can always click on the photos to get a closer look at what's going on)

First step: Get rid of the trailer.Second step: Clear out trees.Third step: burn the tree debris.Fourth step: Get the building permit. June 29th

We even got the lines marked on the spot where we want the house - it was a bit of trial & error, & we moved the house east by 8 feet (we forgot about the entrance that jutts out).
Not too bad, eh?
