Our August House





Well it has been a long time between blogs but not drinks - one to celebrate every recent milestone - a chimney, a roof, wiring, more plumbing, more walls, more windows, more decisions, more stress, more to confuse Biscuit the dog.

Bricks and mortar - April 2011







It has been way too long between blogs - too much else to do! The house is looking very big and solid thanks to Antonio (pictured with Paul the Pirate) and his very talented team of brickies. Biscuit the dog is working hard and very helpful at lunch break! And Wally the new orphan calf is supervising well!

On Monday our French fire box will be bricked in if we can get our heads around the instructions. It should be fabulous as it can be an open fire or glass fronted combustion fire. I towed it home from Mt Barker at about 20kph with complete paranoia!

Moving on up



It is nice to see that the progress with the house extension is now reaching out of the ground. We can get a real feel for our views from the north and east facing windows/doors. The only thing missing in today's photo is the hard working carpenters! Oh and Micky :-(
