Books unpacked

There are so many updates we have lost track. To name a few:
-The doors are reinstalled and properly flashed. 
-The raspberries are weeded.
-The cucumbers have a homemade trellis. And two flowers!!
-The stump by the house has been pick axed. 
-There was a carpenter ant massacre.
-The bedroom dormer design has been sketched.
-Andy is set up to make ship lap siding here. 
And more!

Andy has spent the last two days raiding a lumber store that is going out of business. We are well stocked for many upcoming projects now! We still have to purchase the raw materials for the siding though. Unfortunately, Andy is committed to going to teach at an art camp for two weeks so all house projects will come to a screeching halt. On the upside, you don't need new material for all projects... 

Andy created two saw horses out of an old, broken firewood housing that the previous owners generously left for us.

Apparently these two contraptions will let Andy bring some work up to a comfortable working height. Neigh.

I have been busy too...
 
So I guess not all house projects will come to a halt in Andy's absense! Just the complicated and difficult ones. He leaves on Saturday for sleep away camp and likely update the blog before then.
