Still

Still. We're still here, but hardly still.

Here is what is going on:

-Working again for Connolly and Co. Timberframe Homes and Barns. After two weeks almost finished with a 24x48 story and a half in Hemlock, going to Maryland. The other side of the shop is cutting an octagonal cabana in Western Red Cedar, so we end up wearing dust masks all day because the inflammatory effects of the cedar dust. Looks like there's at least 8 more weeks of work at Connolly's, maybe more. My friends over at Sustainable Structures have landed a new home contract over in Jefferson, and I might jump on that when the work at Connolly's runs out, as I think it will.

-Mudseason is in full swing, almost all the roads are posted "Heavy Loads Limited". Its hard to move anything heavy any where. Otherwise, we'd probably have clearing begin on our land.

-We've been pursuing a particular house design from Timberworks Design in South Burlington, VT. You can see its basic layout here. It is a 24x24 dutch saltbox. We're going to flip the whole thing around and add a day-light basement to get some more out of the small floor plan. We are still hoping to build this year, although it may be better to wait until next year.

That's about it folks,
