Stay tuned for Wall Framing



The framing material has been delivered and soon we'll be seeing walls go up.

Subflooring Down



First floor subflooring is down. One glitch--plumbing for the powder room toilet wasn't stubbed out. Long story short, not to worry--we'll get that fixed.

It's a very solid floor!

Foundation Buried



Here the gravel backfill has been added and the excavated earth has been spread out. When Grandpa sees that, he's going to see garden potential!

Warming Up Inside SCF Lodge



It was cozy inside the lodge, a crackling fire was blazing in the fireplace.

Arrival at Silver Creek Falls (SCF)



Looking for a little escape from the house, we ventured up to Silver Creek Falls and discovered it was a winter wonderland. Paul on the porch, Tecie & Christi at the lodge.
