HAPPY THANKSGIVING
Well, we are finally out of the 17th century. My husband, the electrician, passed the temporary pole inspection and the rough-in inspection with flying colors and on the first attempt, too! We are all enjoying hot showers and power without a generator. The power company showed up on Wednesday to put in the transformer and hook-up our temporary pole. Baine spent all of Tuesday digging the 4 foot deep and 2 foot wide trench with the kids close at hand, armed with shovels. Thanksgiving was a great success with lots of good food (mostly cooked on the woodstove) and good company. Baine also got to fly the neighbor's Cessna 150 and we got a good Turkey day fly-by and the boys were pumped. Lots of pictures from the last week or so. Enjoy.

The wood stove turned out great. Baine did a great job on the hearth and the fuel is plentiful.. just out the front door. The second floor or the ceiling for the first floor (depending on where you are standing)is almost complete and it looks great as well. The leaves are almost gone off the trees now but last the last few weeks have been blazing with the color changes. This picture is on the road out in front of the cabin and this hammock has been wonderful for just enjoying this great piece of property.
