Stan securing the columns, he is at the new house everyday doing a bit of everything.

Pictures of the house

The house is coming along fast. We are ready for the roofing and windows.
This is the kitchen and dining area. Looking out into the backyard.
Cool pan ceiling in the living room.
And what will be the most important room in the entire house..... the pantry! I have never had a pantry before.

The "Apartment"

The apartment has an amazing view of Lassen Peak from the front window.
The stairs going up to the Apartment, this downstairs area is a laundry room and storage area.
Well, it is hard to tell, but this is the kitchen dining area.
Bathroom. It is going to be a nice apartment, it is actually bigger than our first house!


A Road is Born

The dirt truck starting our road. They brought in 11 truck loads of road base.

Well, there it is, our road/driveway. And there is my hot minivan just waiting to take a spin on the new road. The area where our vehicles are now parked will be the front lawn. Life is good!

We have a well!

The well drillers setting up the drill.

These guys were fascinating, watching them work was like watching a well choreographed dance. And when they were finished they had drilled down 170 feet and found us really really good water! Yea!
