November 8, 2008 - Progress on the house

It's so exciting to see the views out our windows beginning to take shape. The bathtub for the guestroom has been delivered. We can begin taking reservations shortly.

November 8, 2008 - Geo-thermal system

We have 10 trenches in the backyard that are each 150ft long and 5 feet deep. These are so the pipes for the geo-thermal system can be buried in the ground. Hopefully the trenches were closed up today and it does not look like a war zone in our back yard anymore.

The trenches are almost completely dug for the geo-thermal system. The backyard looks like a war zone right now. Hopefully the pipes will be placed early next week and the trenches can be closed up.

Marcus and Alex have so much fun exploring every time they are at the property. Today they each came to me with handfulls of little tree frogs. They had been walking in the trenches and found these little guys in great supply. You should have seen the smiles on their faces.
